Password to open iBooks

Every time I open iBooks, it asks for my iTunes password. Is there a way I can turn this feature off of my iPad?

Try this I read on another Support Thread:
Go into your iTunes app on the device(s) you use and check the Downloads tab.  If you have pending downloads clear it.
I checked both iPhone and iPad and sure enough there was "pending" downloads in the iTunes app.  I cleared them and signed on to iBooks without having to re-enter password.  Still a "Bug" in my book but at least a workable solution.

  • I have to re-enter my Apple ID Password every time I open iBooks

    I am prompted to re-enter my Apple ID Password evertime I open iBooks on my iPad and iPhone.  I tried signing out and in again to iTunes but it dd not help.  This only started with upgrade to iOS 7.

    It could be something that needs to be fixed by Apple since there are other reports. I don't use that feature on my 5s so I can't comment. I wouldn't think you have to enter your password over and over. And since there doesn't seem to be any documentation from Apple other than below from this URL, who knows.
    Your fingerprint can also approve purchases from iTunes Store, the App Store, and the iBooks Store, so you don’t have to enter your password.
    Also, see here which also mentions the issue and that Apple recognizes it as an issue to be fixed.

  • IBooks is now requiring Apple ID password upon opening!

    Why do I need to login with my Apple ID every time I open iBooks on my iPad mini?
    This is cumbersome!

    Take it back to Best Buy and talk to the store manager. Possibly they can work something out with Apple.
    In the meantime, try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • When i open ibook, the iTunes store asks for my password. it goes away when i press cancel or when i put in my password. why is this happening?

    When I open IBook, the ITunes store asks for my password.  It goes away when I press cancel or enter my password.  It seems unnecessary to me.  Why is it doing this?  I already paid for the book. 

    If you are trying to update information for your apple id then go to appleid.apple.com and click on manage your apple ID... you'll probably have to enter your old email address/password

    You may have some purchases waiting to be downloaded in one of the stores.

    You saved it after setting the Password? :
    Inspector > Document > Document > Require Password to Open
    I just tested it and it shows up ijn The Finder with a padlock on the file icon and does require a password to open.

    Open the App Store app, go to the Featured pane, swipe to the bottom, tap the Apple ID and sign out. Tap again and sign in with the Apple ID of your choosing.

  • I have downloaded several books into ibooks.  Started reading one and closed it when I was done reading for the day.  Now I want to access other books and when I open ibooks it goes directly to that first book.  What can I do? Help please.

    I have downloaded several books into ibooks.  Started reading one and closed it when I was done reading for the day.  Now I want to access other books and when I open ibooks it goes directly to that first book.  It does not give me the shelf to choose what book I want to read - goes directly to the first book. What can I do? Help please.

    There should be a Library button on the top left. If not ap the middle of the screen to get it to appear.

  • I can't use my password to open icloud. I changed my apple password and it still won't work with icloud

    I can't use my apple password to open icloud.  I changed my apple password and still can't open icloud on my pc. What can I do or what am I doing wrong.
    Thanks

    Sorry to ask but... are you absolutely certain you have entered your Apple ID and account password correctly?
    If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud and the iTunes store, see if you are able to log into the iTunes store from either your computer or your iPod.

  • How can I change the password in the iBook donated to our nonprofit.  No password was given with the iBook?  We need to put in printer and other software.  Help, we can use the laptop without changing the password.

    If you did not get an OS X install-restore DVD with the computer you may need
    to buy one from somewhere, and you may be lucky to get a retail OS X 10.5.x
    version. The original grey-label install set of software and OS X it shipped with
    likely would be an older system than Leopard 10.5. Last versions of G4 Mac, &
    G5, shipped with a Tiger 10.4 system; so did early Intel-based Mac. Grey discs
    which accompanied other computer build models generally do not interchange.
    The last OS X version a PowerPC architecture can use, if supported, is 10.5.8.
    A PPC processor at 867MHz & faster should be able to run OS X 10.5 Leopard.
    {With the correct disc installer, you can use it to change a password and other
    things including re-install, and perform disk utility functions, etc.}
    There is a chance you may be able to get a white-label Replacement 10.4 DVD
    or Replacement 10.5 DVD from AppleCare or the online Apple Store (800myapple)
    from a Mac OS X system specialist; these have been available yet hard to get
    as not all persons involved with them seem to know if they still exist until someone
    is asking. These aren't retail stock, are special discs for computers who could use
    a system later than original old discs; these are complete install discs not for one
    specific series of Mac. Generally they'd work in supported PowerPC G4/G5; but
    do not replace specialized original install DVD, such as an early Intel mac requires.
    You'd need to have a serial number of the computer, and a method of payment
    when seeking some replacement system media from Applecare or Apple sales
    and these discs are not available in a retail store. The original Retail discs are
    labeled differently and shipped in a retail box with a big X on the front. Other
    sources for retail 10.4 Tiger or 10.5 Leopard may be online via amazon sellers
    or computer resellers who handle repaired Macs. Avoid mystery grey label ones
    that were intended to be sold and kept with their original computer kits.
    Good luck!

  • Need a password to open pdf

    I downloaded Reader X on my Windows XP and now when I open PDF files Reader is asking for a password. I've tried all known passwords I've used on Adobe and nothing works. Talked to an Adobe tech and he doesn't know why it's asking for a password to open file. Adobe never asked for a password before to open pdf files. Help

    What is the exact message you get?
    I've never heard of it asking for a password either unless one is required for the actual PDF itself.

  • Why can I no longer open IBooks?

    Why can I no longer open IBooks?

    Go to the Apple Menu (top left) click the Apple Menu and select "About This Mac"
    That will result in this window:
    The version number is right underneath Mac OSX.
    Then I will need to know which version of Office (Word) which you will see on the splash screen when you start it.
