Spanish dictionary for ibooks

I use iBooks for Spanish books. On my iPad I easily associate iBooks with a built-in Spanish dictioinary. This must exist in my new Mavericks Mac operating system but I cannot see how to load it. Also, my iBooks are not sychronized between iMac and iPad. Any ideas?

Thanks, Tom - this is helpful. However, the selection this app gives me is four English-language dictionaries when I select "All": New Oxford American Dictionary, Oxford American Writer's Thesaurus, Apple Dictionary and Wikipedia. I know there are dictionaries in other languages lurking in there somewhere, and they are readily available on iPad. But where do I find them in Mavericks?

HT4059 Will there be a built-in Spanish language dictionary in ibooks anytime soon?

I really love reading using ibooks, but I'd like a little help with my Spanish comprehension.. and If there's anything like the built-in English dictionary but in Spanish.. it will be really great.
Do you have the least idea if there ever gonna be a built-in Spanish dictionary in ibooks???

How can I install an English-Spanish dictionary built-in?

I've tried to install some English-Spanish dictionary to use it to read in English. I am a beginner student and I need some help. I know this is possible in Amazon's Kindle, but not in their application to ipad. How can I do this In IBooks? I don't understand the reason why it seems to be impossible: copyrights, software licenses? Really I like IBooks but I think this is a great handicap. Should I buy a Kindle to do this? I hope for your help. And sorry, could be lots of mistakes in my post... I'm an beginner English student. Thanks

The Kindle app for iOS doesn't have this function either. If you mean a Kindle device, perhaps, but verify it is an available function on it as well. I suspect most eBook reading apps will be limited to defining rather than translating.
The app store does have several translation apps.

HT5557 Is there a way to install a Portuguese dictionary in iBooks?

Is there a way to install a Portuguese dictionary in iBooks? I understand it only has English, German, Spanish, French, Simplified Chinese.

I don't think that Portuguese is an option yet - as well as the ones that you list I also see (by selecting a word in an ibook, then 'define' on the popup, and then 'manage') Korean, Korean-to-English, Italian, Dutch, Simplified Chinese-to-English, Japanese and Japanese-to-English, as being downloadable but not Portuguese. Assuming that you also don't get an option to download a Portuguese dictionary via that then you could try leaving feedback for Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ibooks_ios.html

Downloaded IOS 7 and now I do not have a dictionary in iBook. This is very frustrating. What can be done to fix this issue?

I've got to agree with Allan. It sounds like the hard drive is corrupt at least. It's possible it might be physically failing. Without backups, it's possible your data is already gone. You need a professional to help you.
If you do not have an Apple Store near you or simply don't have the time to spare, there are some things you can try, but you must understand that it's possible these things could make the chances of recovering your data worse than they already are. Perform the instructions to follow at your own risk!
First, you can try repairing your hard drive with Disk Utility. If that works, see if you can start up the machine. If you can, the very first thing you need to do is back up any data you don't want to lose. You may still need to take other steps, as your system may be damaged as well, but getting the data is the important part.
If Disk Utility cannot repair the problems, you can try DiskWarrior. It can repair problems that Disk Utility cannot. However, it also increases the risk of destroying your data if it fails. If it works and you can start up the machine, do the same as I advised for following success with Disk Utility.
If repairs (with either) were successful, but the machine still won't start up, you can try reinstalling the system. Hold down command-R at startup and then just install right on top of the existing system. If all goes well, you'll be able to start up afterwards and can get your data backed up. If all goes badly, it'll further decrease the chances of getting your data back.
If neither can repair the damage, you're in bad shape. You will need a professional to help you, unless you are willing to lose all your data.

Dictionary in iBooks

Hello,
If I touched a word in the book I am reading, comes some options related to that word; one is Dictionary. If I choose it, comes a error message: "Dictionary not available for this language". How come? I am reading a book in English. I would like to have 2 dictionaries — in English and in Portuguese. I would understand if the Portuguese dictionary were not available but I can not believe that even the English one is not available.
In my iPhone 3G apps, appear "Dictionary.com" and "Dicionário Priberam".
They should work as when I am reading on the web on my Mac. I press the shortcut for the dictionary clicking on a word and the meaning of the word appears. What can I do?

If those apps don't work the way they are supposed to, you need to contact the people who made them.
Apple's built in dictionary for iBooks is only English and Japanese. Is the English book you are reading an epub version? It should work. Have you tried other English Books? Have you tried resetting your device?

Where do I find the Spanish dictionary I downloaded from Firefox?

'''Locked as duplicate thread. Original thread at [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/753072 questions/753072]
I see the Spanish dictionary I downloaded as a Firefox add-on in the add-on list, but how do I get to it to use it?

You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.<br />
Also make sure that [X]"Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu has a tick.

Any one having trouble with the dictionary in iBooks after downloading iOS 7?

After downloading iOS7, dictionary in iBooks produces a "no definition found" response after every word i seek a definition for...anyone know how to fix it?

When you elect to look up a definition, you will note a button (lower left of definition pop up) called Manage. Tap that, and select the dictionaries you wish to download.

Iphone and installing an English/Spanish Dictionary

I am looking for a way to put an English/Spanish dictionary on my iphone. My guess is that I need to purchase an English/Spanish dictionary CD Book. Any suggestions of where I might purchase something like this or is there a better solution? I want to be able to use it without being on the internet. Thanks,

For now I'd recommend going online and finding a webpage that translates English to Spanish reliably and then use that. You could even add the icon to you your home screen if you've got the 1.1.3 update. Since you've got the edge for internet this could work pretty well for you.

Add Spanish Dictionary

I would like to add a spanish dictionary to the OS X dictionary app. You just know there has to be one available somewhere in the Apple install disks, but I cannot find one.
Anyone know how to find the .dictionary file for the spanish dictionary? I assume it would work just to add it to the library (I have done this with other dictionaries).

No, a Spanish version is not included. Nor for any other language except Japanese. Some more info:

In case it is spell checking that you need, Dictionary.app is not involved with that.

Spanish Dictionary in Lions

How do I add additional dictionaries under Lios Spell Checker and Dictionary? where is the Spanish Dictionary?

Yeah, I'm in a similar situation, my macbook only has English or Japanese (?) options in the dictionary app and I want to add portuguese. It seems so bloody complicated to do, when are Apple going to fix this? This article might help you, but it didn't work for me. http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/easily-expanding-apple-dictionary-–-mac-only/
Good luck!

Spanish dictionary on prs-600

Hi, I bought a Collins Spanish dictionary in the epub format. It contains 1800 pages. Opening it takes a lengthy 2 minutes...at first I thought the ebook was frozen. Searching by page number takes also 2 minutes...the word search function does work sometimes but requires eternity when it works. It might even shut the ebook down and reboot. This problem is exactly the same when I try to use it with Readers on my laptop where memory is not an issue. Any idea what the problem may be ? Thanks

From your description, and also from the fact that you are having the issue both on your reader and your PC it appears that the epub file is corrupted. Try to re-download it to see if a new copy works better.

Transcription definition for ipad built-in dictionary in iBooks

Could you please give me information where i can find Pronunciation Symbols (transcription definition) for ipad built-in dictionary in iBooks?

Take a look at the ios4 upgrade for the iPad coming in November, keyboard and dictionary.
http://www.apple.com/ipad/software-update/
I don't know if this means a separate dictionary for the iPad. If so, I dough third party apps will have access to the dictionary. Third party app developers would probably need to build a dictionary function into their app. Who knows...? We won't untill ios4 comes out.
You can give Apple feedback for the ipad about you idea:
