Publishing Book on iBook Store - How Long To Wait?

Does any good soul know how long it usually takes to a book to get published on iBook Store after it gets delivered via iTunes Producer App? I uploaded a title about 5 days back and I see that the status of my book is 'Pending'. I am quite curious if somebody has a good experience about the waiting time in his/her case. And this will be really helpful to estimate or have a speculation about nearby searchable status of the book on iBook Store after the date the book got delivered via iTunes Producer. Reply is highly appreciated.

For me its always been 5 working days.
Also make sure On the Rights and Pricing page that the Sales Start Date for the country in question is in the past and Cleared for Sale shows Yes.

Publishing my first book in ibooks store

I am facing some struggle in publishing my first paid book in ibooks store, I have applied for an iTunes connect account, filled out the form perfectly fine but haven't, however, heard anything from Apple yet. What I know is that after filling out the application online on iTunes connect, Apple is supposed to send you a contract, after signing/or agreeing which you can go ahead and publish your content. How long would Apple normally take to accept your application, and how can view the status of my application because everytime I try to sign in to iTunes connect I get this message: "Your apple ID isn't enabled for iTunes connect" and when I try to create a new iBooks account thinking maybe my application was not successfuly submitted I get: "The iTunes Store account entered has already applied to distribute content on iBooks."
Your help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Did you apply to distribute free or paid books? How long has the wait been so far? Did you create a new/unique ID just for books?
The wait varies and used to be one week or less - longer if you are outside the US, I think.
We just came off a holiday, so mabye they're working a backlog on the backend. Based on the msgs. above, it seems you're in the queue.

What do you mean? They do show in the Purchased items in iTunes. Click on the three little dots ... to the right of the last icon showing in the top left to get the list of other iTunes categories (like books). Click on Books, and then on Purchased:

Why isn't there arabic books in iBooks store ??

i have just 1 Q : why i do not find any arabic books in iBooks store to download ??? can anyone answer me and tell me how can i make suggestions to Apple ??
waiting ..

Hi guys,
I made a search and I found some Arabic books on iBooks. You can search: ويكيليكس or by the publisher's name: OWNI and you'll find the book I'm talking about.
In the beginning I thought the text is posted as pictures -since iBooks doesn't support Arabic- but it's all written as a text that you can select and highlight with all the features that English books have -except the dictionary-.
Does iBooks support Arabic? I don't know, but apparently, you can publish in Arabic
Thanks,
Abdullah.

I bought the wrong book in ibooks. How can i get a refund?

I bought the wrong book in ibooks. How can i get a refund?

A refund may not be possible since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
It's possible they'll make an exception for you.
Good luck.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base, before you post a question.

Becoming a publisher on the iBook Store outside the USA

I recently applied to publish books on the iBook Store filling out the requested field as suggested by some users for non-US residents.
I still would like to receive some clarifications on the process and the rules governing book publishing for European residents. What are the requirements to publish ?
The following are my concerns:
Is it allowed to be a personal or legal entity in Europe and publish on the iBook Store ?
Is it required to have a Tax Identification Number in the USA to publish paid editions ?
Is it required to have a USA credit card or bank account ?
What about the USA witholdings required by law for Italy ?
Thank you for your help
Stefano

Yes you can redownload the book from the iBook store as many times as you wish. You can do the same with apps from the app store.

Purchased two books from IBooks store, no pictures.

I purchased two books from IBooks store (both $12.99). "A Company of Heroes" is one. The books are excellent but do not contain any pictures that the hardcover editions have in my local bookstore. I could have bought the print versions for around $15.00, now I feel it was a waste of $$. I checked all the settings and the addendum has a list of all photos in the book but no way to access them, if they are even there. Any thoughts

It's apparently quite difficult in the current ePub specification to do layouts that combine images and text. The Winnie-the-Pooh book is frequently held up as a very hand-crafted example not easy to duplicate. Supposedly the publishers and other concerned parties are working on updating the specification to address some of ePub's shortcomings, but what might come of that and when is difficult to estimate.

How do I remove my book from iBook store

I have a time sensitive book in the iBook store and would like to remove it. How do I remove it so that nobody can continue to download it?

Ever heard of.. "Dont Shoot The Messenger".....
A questions was asked - the asnwer was given.
IF you were not happy with the answer and considered that unlike other you could not understand it... you could have - politely- asked for a clarification.
Also.. you can contact iBooks support very easily.
My Question is
who is allowing the fictitious answers that mean nothing but a waste of time
Fictitious - ie not true? What really wastes time is asking questions without looking on the forum for previous posts on the same subject. Another waste of time is attacking the very folk who try to help you.
Nobody allows anything on this forum, it all done voluntarily by dedicated folk who give up their time to help others. KT is perhaps the most knowledgeable on this forum - but without FULL information he cannot be expected to know what's in your mind.
Your book and everybody who submits it to the review team for inclusion in the store and is accepted - can NEVER be removed by its author. Apple require its history for accounting and inventory purposes.
Any author can withdraw a book from the store wether its free or paid account by using iTunes connect and navigate to the Rights and territories page and de-selecting either individual countries or all.
Apple then remove it from public access.
If you want to know how to remove anything from your personal purchasing... assuming you mean books downloaded to your iPad... simply delete it and also delete it from your iTunes account. If thats not enough information - then you need to find a different forum that one dealing with iBooks Author related issues.

How to list English-only books in iBooks store?

In the ibooks store, does anyone know if a setting exists that would filter out all foreign language titles? For example, if I search for an author, when their bibliography appears, a lot of foreign language titles are included that I am not interested in. Is there any way to set the iBooks store to return English only titles?

Read the FAQ. Yes you do need a tax id.
