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.

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:

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.

If your iTunes is set on manual sync, then you have to manually drag and drop. Otherwise every time yousyncyou'll get all changes even if you don't want it.

Cannot download book from ibooks store on iphone

I appear to be having a problem downloading any book within ibooks on my iphone 3g running ios4.
In one case, I have already purchased the book from my ipad and trying to redownload the book on my iphone I continue to get an message
"Sign in required, tap continue to sign in to continue synching your bookmarks with other devices"
I enter my credentials but the popup continues to appear over and over again at which point I instead hit cancel.
The book now appears to have fully downloaded but it stays 'stuck' with the progress bar filled but I do not have the ability to open the book and the progress indicator continues to spin.
This happens for both 'paid' books and 'free' books.
I tried to download the book again this time with the 'sync bookmarks' feature disabled within system preferences and the same problem happens. The book downloads with a full progress bar, but it never saves.
I tried:
- disabled sync feature
- rebooting phone
- deleting and re-installing iBooks
Thoughts? Thanks!

Dears, the case is sorted now, and I am sharing the YouTube link which helped me to sort this issue, to help others.

it was simple due to not setting the date and time automatically in : Settings-General-Date and Time, then set automatically.

Free Books from iBooks store

Does anyone know how to search for free books other than searching for "free" which brings up a lot of books that aren't free along with the free ones. It has been well over a month since I have checked, but if I remember right there used to be a "free" link down at the bottom of the iBooks Store in the Quick Links category. Where did it go?

Yep. If you go to "browse" you can click on the top right where it says "Free books"
Or, in Chart, if you page through the paid books, you get to a list of the top selling free ones.
Here are two free novels to get you started.

HELP! DID I PURCHASE TWO BOOKS FROM iPHOTO?

I made a book with pictures in it using iPhoto. I selected 'buy now' and filled out the payment info. It was uploading the pictures, but then my computer went to sleep and I went through the process again. I just realized that I may have accidentally bought two books. Is there any way that I can check this?
Any comments are greatly appreciated!

HT4059 Cannot download a specific book from iBooks store

"Adventures In the Screen Trade" by William Goldman - this title will not download. I have no such problem with any other title. I've been attempting (unsucessfully) to purchase this book for the last 24 hours. Any ideas?

No, it's not possible - as far as I know currently only Safari allows you to create separate homescreen shortcuts.

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

sure pretty simple. make a backup of your current settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
then import pics to computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
Peace, Clyde
