Remove books from iPad

For some reason my iPad sync'ed 500+ books from my itunes, not sure why... In itunes I had sync selected books checked and I presonally only checked 2 books, after my next sync it dumped the 500+ more books. My main problem now is how to remove them from the iPad. In itunes I command clicked to remove all books and then sync'ed but the books still remain on the ipad. I then tried to just sync 1 book (itunes shows one book selected) which after sync'ed the single book was placed on the ipad but the others remain.
So... how do I remove these books?!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you are refering to hiding your purchases in the cloud (you can't actually delete them from your history).
Settings > iBooks > Show All Purchases > Off.

You have no choice but to lose your data back to the last backup you made.
Here's how to do the recovery. Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once to succeed:

I'm sure next time, you'll be more vigilant about keeping current backups.

ITunes crashing when trying to sync books from iPad

When trying to sync books from iPad to iTunes, iTunes crashes causing Microsoft error message. Any ideas?

There may be a corrupted video or image file on your iPad.
Try to download from the iPad using Image Capture instead and save the photos to a folder. If that succeeds, you can check the files for corruption before importing them to iPhoto.

How to remove items from iPad home screen?

Press and hold any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded (you can't delete built-in apps) then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'

Front I'd say you can't without affecting how the digitizer is going to work, and as for the back .... why bother?
If you want to mitigate further damage, then consider something like ZAGG shields, which provide coverage for both sides, or better cases, or some combination of the two.

Removing book from Adobe Content Server

Hello.
I would like to remove book from Adobe Content Server. I used answers from that thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/621994 .I successfully removed book from distributor inventory but can not remove it from operator (built-in distributor) inventory. I got this error:
data="E_ADEPT_DATABASE http://acs.authorcloudware.com:8080/admin/ManageResourceKey Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails (`adept`.`fulfillmentitem`, CONSTRAINT `fulfillmentitem_ibfk_2` FOREIGN KEY (`resourceid`) REFERENCES `resourcekey` (`resourceid`))"
How can I delete data from 'fulfillmentitem' table from php script?
Best regards,
Tamara.

Finally, I found a way to remove book from adobe content server. This article Public Knowledge Base helped me a lot.
So, in order to remove book from acs you need to make 4 requests:
- request to admin/ManageDistributionRights with distributor ID
- request to admin/ManageDistributionRights built-in distributor ID
- request to admin/ManageResourceItem
- request to admin/ManageResourceKey
This is how my requests look like:
//Remove book from distributor
<request action='delete' auth='builtin' xmlns='http://ns.adobe.com/adept'>
     <nonce>Mjc3MjQzMTI=</nonce>
     <expiration>2014-05-26T09:57:37+00:00</expiration>
     <distributionRights>
          <distributor>urn:uuid:3bbdd5ee-c325-4ba9-86d9-8cc428d725ac</distributor>
          <resource>urn:uuid:cd9879ce-7648-49ad-8202-243a54486938</resource>
     </distributionRights>
</request>
//Remove book from built-in distributor
<request action='delete' auth='builtin' xmlns='http://ns.adobe.com/adept'>
     <nonce>MjYzNDA0ODQ=</nonce>
     <expiration>2014-05-26T09:57:38+00:00</expiration>
     <distributionRights>
          <distributor>urn:uuid:00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001</distributor>
          <resource>urn:uuid:cd9879ce-7648-49ad-8202-243a54486938</resource>
     </distributionRights>
</request>
//Remove Resource Item Info
<request action='delete' auth='builtin' xmlns='http://ns.adobe.com/adept'>
     <nonce>MjYxMDgxOTI=</nonce>
     <expiration>2014-05-26T09:57:38+00:00</expiration>
     <resourceItemInfo>
          <resource>urn:uuid:cd9879ce-7648-49ad-8202-243a54486938</resource>
          <resourceItem>0</resourceItem>
     </resourceItemInfo>
</request>
//Remove the resource key
<request action='delete' auth='builtin' xmlns='http://ns.adobe.com/adept'>
     <nonce>MjgyNjU2NDI=</nonce>
     <expiration>2014-05-26T09:57:39+00:00</expiration>
     <resourceKey>
          <resource>urn:uuid:cd9879ce-7648-49ad-8202-243a54486938</resource>
          <resourceItem>0</resourceItem>
     </resourceKey>
</request>
Value of "resourceItem" tag is important. Actually I didn't find description in documentation what this tag means. I found that this is optional resource item index and that default value is 1. But when I send delete request with 1 in <resourceItem> the last request, which remove resource key, return error. If you know what this tag mean please answer in this thread.

Removing books from library

How do I remove books from my library? I know how to remove books from my purchase.

If you selected to keep the files, they have to be somewhere.
They don't have to be in your iTunes folder though.
That depends of the settings in your preferences.
Look at the Preferences>Advanced>General.
The 'iTunes Music folder location' is default set to ~/Users/YourUsername/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music.
Music you import from CDs will always be stored in that folder.
Music you've already ripped from CDs (or downloaded from the web) and add to the library later, will only be stored in the 'iTunes Music folder location' if you ticked the checkbox 'Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library'
So if you didn't have that checkbox ticked, your music can be anywhere on the HD.

I accidently removed my books from ipad now they won't sync back.

I pulled a new pdf book from my PC into my books on Itunes. I accidently hit revert and removed the books already on my Ipad. I selected them again and hit sync but now only a few returned to Ipad. The others would not sync because they are showing not found. I don't understand because they are all in my Itunes. Does anyone know how I can get my books back on my Ipad? There is a new version of Itunes but I have not downloaded it. Should I?

It is usually a good idea to update iTunes when a new version is available but this should work anyway.
Connect the iPad to the computer
Launch iTunes - if you auto sync, let the sync process finish
Select the iPad in the left sidebar under "Devices"
Click on the Books tab in the iTunes Window on the right
Click on the Sync Books Heading.
Click on all of the books that you want to sync.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
