Some pdf's that show up in my ibooks on my mac do not show up when I try to sync through itunes. Can't figure out why.

The transfer from my itunes book library to ibooks app on my mac (mavericks) went fine. The problems started when I tried syncing. The first time, everything went fine. Pdf's and ebooks showed up on my devices. I then added more pdf's to ibooks on my mac and when I tried to sync them with my devices, some show up and some don't. I thought it might have something to do with file size but again, some large pdf files did show up in tunes and some didn't.
Overall, not all things are mirroring like they are supposed to between the ibooks app on my mac and itunes, resulting in not being able to get all the content I want on to my devices via syncing.
For example, I will delete something out of ibooks but it stays in itunes when I go to sync. I'll delete it from all the devices and the computer and it will still be in itunes and will reload onto my ipad when I sync my entire library. To repeat, I deleted a book out of ibooks but it still shows up in itunes when I go to sync. Other books that I delete from ibooks do disapear from itunes and are no longer availalble for syncing, as it should be.
There was a pdf I changed to an epub in Calibre. I converted it in case the large size of the pdf was a problem. As an epub, it was a smaller file (8.6 mb vs 100 mb). I deleted the pdf from all devices and the ibooks app. I reloaded it into ibooks as an ebook. It showed up fine. I was able to open it with no problems. Went to sync it with itunes and it didn't show up nor appear on my ipad after syncing the entire library.
So, ibooks on computer is working fine. The content is there (or not there when I delete it) in what ever format I want it. I can open and read everything just fine. The problem is trying to get that same content onto my devices via itunes. Why does some content transfet just fine and some doesn't? Why does some content delete fine while other content can't be deleted from itunes? Why do some pdf's load fine in itunes and some won't?
My computer and my devices all have current updates.
Help!

I had the same issue. After searching around online I found out that you can try downloading another app (it can be any app) onto your ipod. After it finishes downloading see if your other apps open. You don't even have to keep the new app. Just see if your other ones work and you can delete the new one. That should work. If not, try to hard reset it. Here is another apple support link for steps on hard reseting it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430).

  • I have an iphone5 that is eating up data time and I can't figure out why? Any thoughts?

    I have an iphone5 that is eating up data time and I can't figure out why? Any thoughts? I have closed everyting I can, even took the phone to Verizon and they are not sure what is going on.   My company email is active and pushes to the phone....I use Safari regularly to look up stuff for personal and work use.  I am on Facebook but have turned it off in notifications.  Four phones and a hotspot on the account....we have 6g and have never come close to it, until lately and it's my phone that's eating up the gigs.  So what the heck is going on?

    Go to Settings/Cellular and you can see how much data each app is using. You can Reset Statistics, then track all of the apps data usage.

  • Two iTunes movies that I purchased and downloaded to my iPhone do not show up when I try to sync to iTunes on my iMac.

    I purchased the X-Men Bundle of 5 movies. I downloaded the first 3 onto my iPhone. Only 1 of the 3 (the first film) shows up as an option to sync to iTunes on my iMac. I do it this way because I have access to free hi-speed wifi at work but not at home.
    I have verified that the other 2 films are actually on the phone and will play on the phone.
    I have tried various settings and restarted both devices but to no avail.

    Thanks Alex! That did the trick! I just saw your reply. I thought no one had replied because I did not get an email alert. I think I had turned that feature off and forgot I had done so. Now it seems so obvious but for some reason I didn't look there. This is a big help. I can download stuff at work but at home I have only cellular data using a mobile wi-fi device and downloading movies, especially HD movies is just not an affordable option. Taking my iMac to the office would be crazy. I downloaded only my MacBook Air and copied the files onto a thumb drive but those were not recognized. I was at my wit's end. Thanks again!

  • A private label album shows that it is uploaded into iTunes Match, yet I cannot download it to my iPhone.  I can't figure out why?

    5300+ of my 5600+ songs uploaded into iTunes match.  One album of songs, private label, shows that it's loaded (there's a "cloud" beside all the songs), they are appropriate-bit-rate MP3s, and play just fine on my iMac.  However, they're greyed-out when I try to download them to my iPhone 5.  Any ideas?

    Further investigation (and adding some display columns for iCloud status) revealed this album, among a few hundred other songs, were "Waiting".  Observing it run, iTunes Match would attempt to upload song #1 (not on this album) then restart.  Again and again. 
    Using Launcher to get to the Console, I found a iTunes Match "unexpected connection closure" error listed, about a couple hundred times since I started this process on Saturday.  Not good.  And then a bunch of Google results for various potential problems.
    Examining my results, now with that iCloud status column, I found that basically my entire Old Time Radio library won't load, since it's bitrate is way too low (1930's radio mysteries didn't have a lot of fidelity, and don't need it now, particularly.  So...that makes iTunes Match a non-starter for me, anyhow.
    Off it goes.  I'm back to sync'ing portions of my library again.  Until I get an iPhone with more capacity.

  • My itunes erroneously says that my ipod is synced with another computer when I try to sync. What can I do to fix this?

    First, right after updating my iTunes to the latest version, my iTunes will not display album covers. It says exactly "iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer." It has never been an issue before, but, anyway... that is where it all started.
    Then I read a bunch of Apple Support topics on the subject, and it directed me to replace my library file with a previous library file. So, I did, and now, not only will my albums not display, but my iPod Touch will not sync with my computer, the only computer I have ever used it on. It says that the ipod is synced with another library and asks me if I want to erase and sync (I have my music on my computer, but I will lose all of my apps and such).
    What can I do to resolve this? Thanks for the help.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    All media content will be erased during the first sync, but you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • TA24505 Why do d600 raw's look totally different than the jpg's that are imported together. When I select a raw, it looks as if it gets adjusted, but I can't figure out why...

    When I import nef files from nikon D600, the pictures look good in the preview, but that's just because the preview is a jpg, generated by the camera. When I select the image, it looks like it is processing something and a totaly different (darker) images is presented in the preview window and the thumbnails. In the adjusment window no adjustments look active/selected.
    Is the diference because Aperture cannot proces my Nef files the right way or are there some default adjustments selected in Aperture, somewhere that I'm not aware of? Maybe some default import setup...?
    I use the latest updated version of Aperture, I'm new to aperture and understand the concept but am not familiar with all the tools.
    Anyone?
    (thanks in advance!)

    Thanks Leonie,
    I think this also answers my question:
    Are you per chance using the in-camera setting for D-Lighting? If so, this is a Nikon proprietary use where the camera intentionally underexposes the image, then applies in-camera processing to bring it back to normal exposure that offers a slightly enhanced dynamic range. Unfortunately, Nikon does not share how this is done and it can only be rendered by their own software options.
    Aperture, or any other third party RAW image processor, can't easily match these proprietary processes in any exact fashion ... they have to develop their own ... not just for one camera or one brand ... but all those they support ... even if they would try to match these in-camera settings ... the likelihood that they would satisfy more than a small batch of users is quite low ... tone and color results are purely subjective so finding a match that would please everyone is almost impossible.
    This is why if you plan on using a third party RAW processor like Aperture, it is best to avoid using the in-camera processing settings. Rather you should create your own presets within Aperture to achieve your goals. In this instance, it is better to allow your chosen RAW processor to do the work, rather than the camera do the processing.
    The reason you see the change in the image as Aperture loads it, you initially see the embedded jpeg preview from the NEF file. Then Aperture creates a new more accurate view based upon Aperture's RAW processing engine.

    It would be helpful if you posted what the things were that you tried that didn't work in the interest of not suggesting it again.
    Settings>General>Siri>on would be the starting point. Then Settings>General>Restrictions>Siri>Off. If you restrict Siri, that also restricts the microphone I believe.

  • VZW sucks, after overcharging me for four months they issued a credit and then charged me for that credit the following month and 2 cost service reps and one supv can't figure out why...THEY SUCK

    Does anyone else find it odd VZW starts every conversation with the standard "this call may be recorded" line, but if you imply you are recording them, they freak out and go silent.  It's amazing they never want to stand by what they say.  I was overcharged and basically screwed for four months, they then issues me a credit and then CHARGED me for that credit the following month.  I explained it in their second grade terms so they could understand and still NO ONE gets it.
    RIDICULOUS

    Grothka wrote:
    First, can you elaborate a bit on what the concern with the credits are? It is really hard to give advice about the scenario without really knowing what is happening. #2: I don't find it odd at all that vzw wants to record their calls but not have customers record them. In fact I can't imagine that any medium-large company (or many small companies either) would be comfortable with their rep's being recorded seeing as they could make mistakes or just decide to not be appropriate. VZW records their calls for 'quality and training purposes.' Meaning that they are doing it in an attempt to improve their customer service internally, and if it means that they can go back and listen to a call to see if a rep made a mistake then that is just gravy. In most cases if a call is listened to and it's found that the rep did lie or make a mistake it will be corrected and handled internall. If, however, a customer records a call there is a pretty good chance that they will blast it all over the world and damage vzw's reputation... this is a problem if vzw would have fixed the issue anyways once they had a chance to listen to the call.
    Thats interesting. Sounds like a fairy tale but interesting.

    I have uploaded the InDesign file so that you can take a closer look at:
    http://www.hsdesign.comuf.com/downloads/
    The file is called "Template_File.indd"
    So, as discussed the main issues are:
    1) The TOC doesn't generate all the listings (only those with the applied paragraph style "Heading 1 - Appendix")
    2) When I try to create a new pargraph style and apply it to existing or new text, it reads the pargraph style in the Paragraph Style menu, but the style doesn't actually apply.
    Hopefully you can figure something out from this. I really appreciate your help.
    Thanks!
