Problem with ibook store

in the ibook store i select a book and then select author page.  I then get an error that says the search cannot be completed on my device.  I use the store and this functionality regullarly and have never had this problem before.  I have updated to the latest os version

Most ebooks from other sites are DRM protected and will be VERY difficult, if impossible to import into iBooks to read.  While you can save PDF's and read them via iBooks, for the most part iBooks is a store where you buy books and then read them from your library.  Just like Kindle or Nook.  You can't buy a book from iBooks and read it on he Kindle App or Nook App and you can't buy a book from the Kindle App or Nook App and read it on iBooks.

    Hello damelissi
    Download the app again, and then go through the process of downloading the previous purchase outlined in the article below.

  • Problem with iBooks app on iPhone

    Having a major problem with iBooks app. Can only get free classic books but nothign contemporary. Cannot update the app either. Works perfectly on my ipad! Should I delete the app and reload? Will I losse all the books I already have??

    It is true that all purchases should share a single Apple ID. It is also true that both iOS and OS X allow only one iCloud account per user. And it is true than every Apple ID has an iCloud account, and every iCloud account an Apple ID [1]. Most unfortunately, it is also true that many (most?) Apple customers have multiple Apple IDs (even if they don't know it - I have 4 [2]).
    So far, so simple. Here is the catch. On both iOS and OS X the Apple ID for purchases need not match the Apple ID for account-specific iCloud services. Life is much nicer if they do match, but they don't have to. Part of the bug I ran into was related to a configuration error, probably arising during Mavericks install over Mountain Lion, that gave iBooks my user account's iCloud services Apple ID rather than the iOS/iTunes store Apple ID.
    Apple's identity management is a mess of almost unfathomable proportion -- the sort of mess that every smart exec runs from. I'm certain it's gummed up by contracts with rights holders, disparate internal systems, unfortunate choices and a nest of secondary assumptions. It would take a will of iron and a lot of cleverness to solve. I'm curious whether Tim Cook will force the fix.
    [1] Curiously, however, an iCloud account does not need to have an email address, and the iCloud account email address need not match the associated Apple ID. This is yet another unfortunate edge case of the Apple ID mess.

    BOB we need you urgently
    Perhaps Bob will see this thread, he is the professor in these cases.
    You do not use a WEP password but wpa/wpa2 on router and equipment.
    All equipment connects to WiFi, but for your iPad.
    Even with all other equipment WiFi off, you cannot connect your iPad.
    Your iPad connects to other WiFi nets correctly.
    All resets etc done on iPad and Router.
    Still I am not sure it is your router for sure, frustrating...
    I want to test 2 other things:
    1. in your iPad, set everything OFF in Settings/Cellular, turn off/then/on your WiFi, and see whether it will still not connect...
    2. If that does not do it: disconnect the router as well as the modem from the power, for 15 seconds, then reconnect the modem, let it fully start, then reconnect the routet let it fully start, turn of your WiFi in iPad, then on, and see whether it will connect.

    Did you check to see if your credit card has expired or has been frozen? My dad bought some hardware from Canada and it froze his card because it was an out of the country purchase. He called the bank and they turned it back on.

  • I have a problem with Apple store when installing large application: The system crashes. Any suggestion?

    I have a problem with Apple store when installing large application (example xCode): The system crashes.
    It begun with 10.8 usualy with few tries it work but with 4.6 no succes.
    Any suggestion?

    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post shutdownStall, spin, or hang reports.

  • Does anyone has problems with Apps store whenever u rotate the ipad the 4th generation?

    Hi,
       I have problems with Apps Store whenever I rotate the device it will just auto exit from the apps store and back to home screen.

    Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

    Is there any particular app you are trying to install?
    I downloaded Fmobi last night after using a free copy for ages.
    It wouldn't install due to me having the 'old' installer still there.
    Kept giving me the same notification you stated.
    I found it by using the 'App Manager', deleted and the install went in straight away.

  • Any news on the problem with iTunes Store?

    I'm still unable to download anything from the store. The US site claims everything is fixed...

    The problems with the store from yesterday were fixed judging by posts on here saying that it was working for them. If you are still having problems, and you can get online in other apps (e.g. Safari), then have you tried :
    - disconnecting and reconnecting to your network
    - doing a soft-reset of your phone (pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, ignoring the red slider, after which the Apple logo should appear, which is the equivalent of a reboot
    - logging out and back into your account on your phone via Settings > iTunes & App Stores

  • Problems with iTunes Store today?

    Anybody else having problems with the iTunes Store today? A gift email to my girlfriend never arrived (I gifted an album) even thought it was re-sent 2x to different addresses, and is not in a spam folder; I haven't gotten emailed receipts for several transactions (although I know they went through - PayPal was charged and emailed its receipt), and I had trouble off and on all day getting through to the App Store to update apps.
    I noted this on Twitter and Facebook and a number of friends replied that they were also having significant problems as well. Anyone know what's up?

    To follow up, I re-sent the gift a third time late Friday (that's four attempts total), and it was successfully received and redeemed this morning (Saturday). I also received a response from iTunes Store support, whom I had contacted separately, which contained the gift code from the transaction and advice to send it directly to the recipient, but they did not acknowledge any problems with the Store.
    I did get a number of responses on Twitter and Facebook from others who had iTunes Store problems yesterday, however.
