Syncing ibooks from pc to iphone

can't get my ibooks to fully download onto my 5c phone from my PC after updgrading to ios 8. online manuals have not helped. what am i missing? i've updated itunes and followed the directions for syncing, but nothing works. the books have been "downloading" for more than 24 hrs. 

Welcome to the discussions,
did you check this article about syncing photos via iTunes? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
Can you see, looking at the color bar in iTunes, that the amount of data used for photos on you phone increased?

  • Sync iBooks From iPAD to iPhone

    Please follow the steps below to figure out how to Sync iBooks From iPAD to iPhone
    Before Starting: Settings For Both Devices
    1. Settings > iBooks > Sync Collections > On
    Then...
    1. Sync iPAD with iTunes.
    2. File > Transfer Purchases From iPAD (this should transfer those books your purchased on your iPAD onto your iTunes)
    3. Un-sync iPAD from computer
    4. Sync iPhone
    5. Store > Purchased > Drag book(s) from the "Purchased folder" to your iPhone (this should transfer your book(s) from iTunes onto your iPhone)

    No, this is not necessary or correct. It's not necessary to transfer to and from the iTunes library. When you sign into your iBooks account on each device you have iBooks installed in:
    iBooks > Store > Purchased > shows everything you bought > download from there wirelessly.

  • HT4059 How do you sync ibooks from the ipad to the iphone 4

    How do I sync ibooks from the ipad mini to the iphone 4?
    Thank you

    If they are iTunes purchases and they are still in the store then you should be able to re-download them on your phone via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app. If they are not iTunes purchases, or are no longer in the store, then you can copy them from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases (that should copy non-iTunes purchased books/PDFs from the iBooks app as well as ibooks) and you can then sync them to your phone.
    If you then want to keep collections and bookmarks in-line between the two devices then use Settings > iBooks > Sync Bookmarks and Sync Collections 'on' ('Sync Collections'  won't copy books/PDFs between the devices, it will just put those that are already on both devices in the same collection)

  • How to sync iBooks between Mac and iPhone? I'm on Mavericks and iOS 7

    I'm on Mavericks and iOS 7, but my iBook on Mac is different from my iPhone 5.
    Does anyone know how to sync iBooks between Mac and iPhone?
    This issue has been puzzled me for a while, hope can find a way out here, many thanks~

    Under iTunes / File / Devices ?
    But I did not see my iPhone under this section...
    Only see those 4 options:
    Sync "my iPhone"
    Transfer Purchases from "my iPhone"
    Back Up
    Restore from Backup
    Could you describe a bit more precise?
    Many thanks~

  • HT3529 I have lost all data on my iphone and the back-up is too old. How can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4? I have all the chats on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    Hi,
    I have lost all data on my iphone by mistake. I needed to restore the phone and I didnt realize my back-up was 1yr old, and now the phone is restored and I've got a year old contact list and iMessage chat history. Luckily my iMessage on the Mac is still valid and has all the chat history. My question is how can I restore iMessage chats on my iPhone 4 from my Mac? I have all the chat history on my Mac, but there seems to be no sync function from Mac to iphone. Please advice.

    If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
    Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
    What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
    iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
    The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

    Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

  • HT201272 Need to sync apps from my friends iphone to my ipad using itunes. How can be that done?Please advise.

    Need to sync apps from my friends iphone to my ipad using itunes. How can be that done?Please advise.

    Well first you need to sync your iPhone 4 with your Mac/PC so that it will transfer all your music, apps, podcasts, etc. Then sync your iPod Touch and the media you selected during the sync should be there on your iPhone. If you have difficulty in transferring media from iPhone to your computer, try softwares like TransCopy. They will help in transferring data from your iphone to your computer. Dont forget to check that all the transferred data is in the iTunes media folder so that the iTunes can locate the files. Link to Transcopy software :

  • How to sync Notes from Mac to iPhone?

    Hi.
    First up .. is Notes supported in Mavericks as I see no specific forum here?
    My question is How to sync Notes from Mac to iPhone?
    I have lots of Notes written in the Notes application on my iMac.
    All these Notes also appear in my iCloud Notes page via Safari. So far, so good.
    BUT if I want to sync Notes to my iPhone (iOS 7) my iPhone settings tells me iPhone Notes is default and that if I turn on Notes on iPhone all my iCloud Notes will be deleted.
    HOWEVER, I cannot see a way on my iPhone to set the default Notes to iCloud.
    I am unsure if this is a OSX question or an iOS question .. but it is a NOTES question.
    If you can help, it would be appreciated. Else I will ignore Notes on iPhone (as it seems from other Forums I cannot delete it).
    C'mon Apple .. you are losing the ease-of-use mojo.
    Michael

    These are fun, call apple care and ask for a senior advisor, Both Mac and ios can help. But I can't help you on here it's just too detailed. Expect to spend about 30 minutes with a senior advisor.

  • Syncing contacts from iTunes to iPhone 4s -got all my girlfriends contacts

    Syncing contacts from iTunes to iPhone 4s
    I upgraded my iPhone 4s to the latest os yesterday. My girlfriend and I use the same installation of iTunes, and for some reason I got all of her contacts copied to my phone. During the installation of the new os, I was told there was a conflict with the contacts and I was prompted to choose between to different sets of contacts both bearing my name but my girlfriends picture (!). I tried to skip this stage and moved on with the installation, and when I was done our contacts were all mixed up. When I later installed the new os on her iPhone (3), she got all of my contacts!
    Is there a way to show iTunes what to put in which phone?

    Hello Hylan,
    There are a few possibilities.
    First, make sure both iTunes and the iPhone are up-to-date.
    Make sure the "Sync Address Book Contacts" box is actually checked in the Info tab for the iPhone.
    You can try resetting the Sync history on the Mac:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
    It could be an issue with the Contact database on the iPhone.
    If your contacts data on the Mac is current (no contacts on the iPhone that are not in Address Book). you can replace the Contact data on the iPhone with a fresh copy from the Mac.
    At the bottom of the Info tab for your iPhone, you'll find a checkbox for Contacts under Advanced -- this will replace the contact data on the iPhone when you sync. It is a one time checkbox and will be unchecked automatically after the sync.

  • I have problems with sync ibooks from iTunes to my iPad since i update to ios7

    i have problems with sync ibooks from iTunes to my iPad since i update to ios7

    first you plug your device into your computer, then you select the name of your device on the left side of itunes. then you select 'apps' from the top center of the itunes window, and you check the apps that you want to go from the computer to the device
    once you've done that, you press the 'apply' button in the lower right corner
    this will be the same for anything you want to go from the computer to the device
    you'll select the appropriate tab at the top, then only check information you want to go from the computer the device and then hit 'apply'

  • Cannot sync videos from iTunes to iPhone 5S

    I recently got an iPhone 5S 32 GB.  I restored it through iTunes from a backup of my old iPhone 4S 16 GB.  Since the restore, & after an upgrade to iOS 8.0.2, I can no longer sync videos from iTunes 11.4.0.18 to the iPhone.  Previously I had been syncing a number of these videos to the 4S for years.
    Here's what I've always done:  I simply connect the iPhone to my PC via a lightning cable.  Next I click on the "Movies" button at the top of the window.  Then I check the box to sync the movies that I wish to transfer.  Finally I hit "Apply."  The sync starts, but the movies never make it to the phone for some reason.
    When I click on "Movies" under the iPhone on the left side of the screen, I see a listing of the movies that should have synced.  They are listed there, but they are kind of greyed out, & they have a dotted circle beside them.  This is very puzzling because I have over 17 GB of free space on the phone.  I can also confirm that the files are on my hard drive in the location shown when I right-click & hit "Get Info."  I can also successfully sync the very same videos with my iPad mini.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    UPDATE:  I backed up my phone, wiped it (Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase All Content and Settings), & then restored it through iTunes.  For whatever reason, that seems to have fixed the problem.  Movies now sync to my phone like they used to.
    That process seems to have corrected 1 or 2 other minor issues, including one where iTunes was 'syncing artwork' for a long time on every sync.
