PDF's crash the iBook

Since the last updates to the iBook and the iPad, PDF's added to the iBook app when opened to read crash the iBook app. I have resorted to putting the PDF's into GoodReader so that I can read them but I would prefer to read them in iBook. Has anyone else been having this trouble?

This solution was recommended by one of the magazines I can not read using iBooks and it works for me:
Download Adobe Reader
Download Downloads Lite (or the full program)
Open Downloads Lite and browse to file's location
Click on the link
Select Download
Once the file has downloaded, click on Files at the bottom of the app
Click on the blue arrow next to the title of the product and select Open with Adobe Reader

    You should be able to just place them in your Books library in iTunes and check to ensure that your Book library is configured to sync to your iPod when you sync your iPod to iTunes.

  • I have a button that opens a PDF that crashes Moodle and Scorm Cloud. How can I fix this?

    I'm using adobe Captivate 5.5
    I have a button that opens a PDF that crashes the course when in an LMS (I've tried moodle and scorm cloud). When I play the course in my browser, the file opens fine and the course continues. Does anyone know why opening this file doesn't work when I upload the SCORM package to an LMS?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi aperio_chris,
    Thank you for contacting adobe support.
    Please use the following steps and let us know if that helps:
    1. In the publish setting>>externalize resources>>check all the check box which are for attachment, widget, animation etc.
    2. Check the flash player version change it to version 9 or 10 when publishing the output through Adobe Captivate.
    Thanks and Regards

  • IBA -ibooks file crashes my iBooks App

    I have an Ipad 2 running IOS 7.0.2 I just created an .ibook using Ibooks Author, the file is 20.5 mb if I try to open in ibooks on my IPad2 the app crashes.
    I had the same thing happen before I exported to .ibooks as I tried to preview entire book and ibooks crashed doing that too.
    Just published the ibook, as mentioned its 20.5mb
    added to library in Itunes synced with ipad, book displays on Ibooks shelf. If I try to open it and iBooks crashes.
    All other e pubs open fine. This is a book for a client of mine, I cannot tell him that here is your book but it crashes the Ibooks app when you open it.
    There are NO IMAGES just 100+ pages of text.
    Anybody? As I do a search for this topic and I see tons of questions but no answers.
    I'm  running IOS 7.0.2 on my IPad2
    Any help?

    OK I tried to open two books I had done last year using IBA, both crashes the program as well.
    Now what?
    What do you mean? They worked before but not now? Are they store versions? Do you think it's an iOS/iBooks issue?
    If iBooks is crashing regardless, check free space on that device, reinstall iBooks & sync fresh copies of your stuff - still no joy, try another device -- else, contact Apple.

  • I just downloaded a lot of PDF textbooks to my ibooks, and now it crashes within seconds of opening the app. I have tried restoring the iPad and just updated the iBooks to 3.1. Any ideas? I have the new iPad.

    What a waste of space to paste the code.
    Why not ask in the iLife > iPhoto forum where your question belongs.

  • I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF file to my iPad, via a Hotmail email. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad in Mail already opended, as a picture on the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent it from auto open, so I can open with iBooks instead?

    I have an iPad 2, and I am sending PDF files to my iPad, via a Hotmail account. But, the PDF arrives to the iPad Mail account already opened at the bottom of the email. Is there a way to prevent this auto-opening of the PDF. I've seen screen shots with the box, and PDF listed inside the box, but mine open automatically. I want to get them into iBooks...?

    I am having the same problem and it is even bigger.
    When opening a 1-page PDF in iBooks and sending it via mail it is sent inline as preview, but the recipient cannot open the file anymore. Also on iPad and iPhone there is no "open in" possible.
    Somehow the mail app does destroy the file. What is going wrong?

  • Since downloading the iOS on my iPad, I cannot download more than one pdf from mail to iBooks.  I have to shut down y iPad and start again.  Any suggestions?

    Since downloading iOS on my new iPad, I cannot downlaod more than one pdf from mail into iBooks.  I have to shut down my iPad and restart it to save a second pdf. Wasn't a problem with the old operating system.  Any suggestions?

    It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
    Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.

  • How can I close an Open PDF form without crashing the browser

    Hi
    We have build a webdynpro application in Java. In this application, we are make using of the Interactive form to bring up  a PDF form that the users can print. Our issue is that no matter what approach we take there is no gracefull way to exit once the PDF is displayed.
    Here are the approaches we took.
    1) Embed the PDF in the existing Window. The form comes up correctly with all fields, but there is no way to get out from it. A browser back doesnt help, nor is there a default close button in the PDF window.
    2) Bring up the PDF on a separate window.The PDF does come up fine on this new window. We were hoping to use the window.destroyInstanece() method on this new window to both close the window and gracefully exit the PDF form. This too dint quite work out and resulted in a browser crash.
    I am sure others must have faced a similar problem. Are there any suggestions on how we can handle this. I found a few other posts with similar issues but no clear answers.
    We are using Adobe 7.0.9 Reader on the client end.
    Regards
    Aju Paul

    I have been working with Aju on this issue. We are still experiencing the issue.
    We have tried using the destroyWindow() method and using a fireplug to redirect the application. When we have an Interactive form embedded on one of the views in the window, the application will cause a browser crash when we try to destroy popup window or redirect the applicaiton.
    If we remove the Interactive form from the view, we can destroy the window and we can redirect the application. The problem only  occurs when the Interactive form is present.
    We have recently upgraded our server to SP10. I have also reloaded the ACF on my pc. Neither of the steps resolved the issue. What else can we look at to see what may be causing the issue.
    Thanks.....Tommy Knight

  • Can I send an iPhoto book to my parents as a PDF? I need their input before I order the ibook.

    Can I send an iPhoto book to my parents as a PDF? I need their input before I order the ibook.

    You can create a PDF preview of your book, see this link:
    iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040
    The PDF will be too large to email to your parents - copy it to a USB stick or burn it as CD or DVD and send it as a letter.  Or upload it to a server for download, your Dropbox, etc.

  • I am trying to upload my PDF file from my IBooks but its only giving me the option to upload from my pictures/gallery. How do I get it to where I can upload PDF files from my iBook or how do I transfer my PDF files to my pics?

    I am trying to upload my PDF file from my iBooks but its only giving me the option to upload from my pictures/gallery. How do I get it so I can upload from my iBooks or move my PDF files to my gallery so I can upload it?

    I'm having the same issue. I saved a PDF from an email into iBooks. I'm on apple applying for a job but the only option the upload button has is from the Photos file. How ironic right? Luckily I'm in Logistics and not an IT specialist applying for this job! Lol. Does anyone know the fix?

  • Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email? So that the user can print it out.

    Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email?
    I'm making the book for children and there is one chapter providing coloring pages. So I wish to attach pdf files that allow users to download it at the end of chapter so that  they can print it out. Been searching through discussion, I've found some advice about taking screen snapshot page-by-page > then send the pics from photo album to email. However, I'm wondering if there's a way that make the process easier.

    Warehouse that PDF on your own server, then link to it from your book.

  • Anyone know how to change the size of PDFs in the iBooks library?

    I was wondering if there was a way to increase the size of the thumbnails for PDFs in the iBooks library on your iPad. It's hard to read them at this default size and just about every other app in creation (several of them modeled after OSX's own file folder display system) will allow you to zoom in on thumbnails or change the orientation so that they are grouped in a way that makes them easier to see. My kingdom for a slider-majigger at the bottom of the screen!
    Anyway, does my request make sense? Also, am I missing something, or is that feature just not available?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can adjust the time of each slide in the slideshow settings, which you'll find above the thumbnails of the slides when you open the photo album on the Apple TV.
    Note, not all of the slideshow options have time settings.

  • HT5071 Can I create a book using the IBooks Author word processing software, save it as a PDF, then have it professionally printed by an offset press to sale in brick and mortar stores? If so, is this procedure free me from any IBooks restrictions?

    Can I create a book using the IBooks Author word processing software, save it as a PDF, then have it professionally printed on an offset press to sale in brick and mortar stores? If so, is this procedure free from any IBooks restrictions?

    It's your content, under your control.
    If you output as an .ibooks file, and you want to sell it, the store is the only outlet, otherwise, you can do as you wish.

  • I have iPad 4th Generation with iOS 6.1.3  Since my iBooks was updated to version 3.1.1 I cannot open pdf file attachment in my email.  When I tap of the attachment, the iBooks icon no longer show itself.  Can someone please help?

    Thanks for all (Ocean20 & Courcoul) who replied. 
    Reset the device did not help me but it does triggers me to attempt to resend the PDF file attachment on email--and it works the 2nd time.  My problem is now solved.
    The Adobe Reader is very helpful--it allows me to scroll through the document easily, unlike iBooks, where I cannot scroll straight up or down.
