What is the BISAC category to get into Parenting?

Now working on Flash card books...
Last time it get me many tries (and many books end up in the wrong categories) to find the right BISAC category finally get into Children & Teens category... does anybody know what is the BISAC category to choose to go into Parenting? Is it Family & Relationships / Child Development? or...?

I think the key is how you rank your choices. That and it seems logical that the review teams may have some idea (or cheat sheet to work off of), and as long as your selections match, they'll drop it in the first one you want.
But if your settings conflict, they may override and decide on their own.
I expect so, yes.
When I decided on the categories for my book, I found it quite difficult and non-intuitive. The BISAC categories are quite limited in what they offer.
My book is essentially a DYI guide (drum making). The BISAC "Education" category was one of the first I looked at. But all the sub-categories of that relate to essentially school teaching, which isn't applicable. "Crafts & Hobbies" is another option, but there really isn't any appropriate sub-category in that. (The closest is "Woodwork", but that doesn't really capture it accurately.) "House and Home" has a "General" sub-category, but it's not really about house and home…
"Music" sort of works, but doesn't have a sub-category for instrument building and repair. And so on…
In the end, I settled on a few BISAC and BIC2 categories that matched the topic as best as possible.
The biggest problem with the BISAC and BIC2 categories is that there is no obvious mapping to the categories in the iBookstore. And, as a publisher, I probably care about what section in the iBookstore the book is published in much more than the BISAC or BIC2 categories (which appear to be invisible in the store).
It probably would help if publishers could at least suggest appropriate iBookstore categories when they submit a book.

  • What is the BISAC category to get into Children's Nonfiction?

    I have some children books which I wish to be placed into Children & Teens->Children's Nonfiction category in iBookstore, as our competitors have books over there.
    However, when I tried to upload our Children Music books, we choose Children Music in iTunes Producer, and ends up in Arts & Entertainment->Music! OK, so when we upload our children books on animls, we tried Education/Preschool & Kindergarten, and we ends up in Professional & Technical->Education!
    In all cases, we make sure that our books are specified to be for children only and 3 and up reading age.
    I got another batch of children music books that we wanted to upload, can some kind souls please tell us what category to choose in BISAC? Thanks!

    This works! I finally got one of my book into Children Non-fiction!
    My book is named "Cranes", can't find it yet, but anybody interested can search for it. It has a lot of good photographs of the birds.

  • When I see the usage on my iPod touch 4 they have categories for how much space is being used where. What does the "other" category contain? Like what could I delete on my iPod to get rid of the "other" category?

    when I see the usage on my iPod touch 4 they have categories for how much space is being used where. What does the "other" category contain? Like what could I delete on my iPod to get rid of the "other" category?

    What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
    First try:
    "First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
    as recommended by:
    How do I get rid of "other" storage: Apple Support Communities
    Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up

  • What is the best way to get a tune created in GB for iPad into iMovie for iPad?

    What is the best way to get a tune created in GB for iPad into iMovie for iPad?

    Haven't done it myself, but seems like the correct workflow would be:
    From GarageBand (iOS), My Songs -> select song -> Send to iTunes
    From iMovie HD (iOS), My Project -> Insert Media -> select by song name
    I'm not sure if GB creates its own playlist for tagging exported songs in your iTunes library so selecting by name would be the next-best method.
    Have you tried this?

    Set computer to lock with password in 5 seconds. now cannot open in time because of the 5 second shutdown. What can I do to now get into my computer??

    I'm not sure which option you set.  Requiring the password after 5 seconds in System Preferences > Security only kicks in after the sleep or screen saver.  The smallest option for sleep or screen saver is 1 minute.
    Which options did you set?

  • What is the easiest way to get music into itunes library?

    Hey everyone, what is the easiest way to get my songs into itunes without importing them one by one. For example, if you download several songs with Limewire is there a way to make them automatically download into Itunes or do you have to add file or import them manually. I tried to be slick and change the folder that the limewire was saving songs into to make it the same as the itunes library folder. I didn't do something right apparently cause I still have to either add file or import to get the songs. I wish there was a way to just auto download them into the itunes or scan the computer for new songs.

    Does this software do what you want?

  • What is the simplest way to get video from mini DV tapes into computer

    My computer has no firewire connection. What is the simplest way to get the video from my camera (JVC GR-D340EK) ?

    Mikeathome
    Thanks for the reply.
    The reason that I asked if this was a one time thing or not was related to my thoughts about asking you to look at the relative costs of have the DV data capture firewire done professional or by a friend versus going through looking for slots on your computer for a firewire card or purchasing a computer that still comes with a firewire port.
    We will be watching for further developments.
    Thanks.

    what does the "other" category consist of when syncing iPhone

    "Other" data is real data that you put on your phone by using the built in apps. It is not music, not videos, not pictures and not App Store app data. It is "OTHER" meaning everything that does not fall into these categories. Such as:

    You will find posts from people who said they recovered over 3 GB of space by just deleting old text messages.
    If you want Other to be smaller you will have to keep less data on your phone; delete old MMS and texts, delete old email (especially from the "deleted" folder), clear the cache, eliminate cover art.
    Sometimes "Other" includes data corruption. If you suspect this is a possibility try connecting to iTunes and click the Restore iPhone button. First restore from backup; the Other doesn't get any smaller you can Restore again and set up as New, then add your content back separately from your backup.

  • What is the fastest way of getting data?

    With a scanning electron microscope, I need to scan a 512*512 pixel area with a pixel repetition of 15000 (two channels), meaning averaging over 15000 measurements. Simultaneously I have to adjust the voltage output for every pixel.
    I am using a 6111E Multifunction I/O board in a 800MHz P3. The whole task has do be done as fast as possible (not more than 20 minutes altogether).
    What is the fastest way to get this huge amount of data with averaging and output in between? (E.g. do I use buffered read with hardware triggering or is there a faster way?)

    Using the NI-DAQ API (not LabView) will give you a significant amount of more control over what happens and when to the data stream; which translates to a more efficient program. But you need to program in C/C++ or Delphi then. The Measurement Studio provides ActiveX controls that are like the LabView ones for C&C++ (they�re slow like the LabView ones though � not a lot you can do about the Windows GDI).
    What are you trying to sample 15000 times? The 512*512 pixel field?
    That�s almost 15Gigs of data! And it means you need to process data at 12.8MB/s to finish it in 20 minutes. I hope you know C, x86 assembly and MMX.
    I would setup a huge circular buffer (NI-DAQ calls them �double buffers�), about 30 seconds worth or so, to use with SCAN_Start. Then I would proces
    s the actual buffer the card is DMA�ing the data into with a high priority thread. Progressively sum the scan values from the 16bit buffer (the samples are only 12 bit, but the buffer should still be 16bits wide) into a secondary buffer of DWORDs the size of the screen (512*512), and you�ll need two of those, one for each channel. Once the 15000 scans are complete, convert each entry into a float divide by 15000.0f, and store it in a third buffer of floats.

  • I get an "install failed" message. "Recovery system can't be created-click restart to return to previous version of OS X." This doesn't work. My Mac continues to try to install Mountain Lion. What is the elegant way to get my system back?

    I get an "install failed" message. "Recovery system can't be created—click restart to return to previous version of OS X." This doesn't work. My Mac continues to try to install Mountain Lion. What is the elegant way to get my system back?

    The first time I attempted to install ML was on a late 2011 MBP.  It ran for three minutes then gave me the error message: Could not install OSX due to an unexpected error.  I was using the original ML install app, not a USB or other drive.  
    After a couple of restarts wiht the same result I saw a message to the effect that the install was trying to close open apps.  I closed apps  manually a few times to no avail.  I shut down instead of restarting then booted into Safe mode (hold down the shift key when starting) and that did it.  The install went smoothly after that. 
    I since installed ML in two iMacs using a cloned copy of the install app on a USB drive.  This time I shut down the computers and booted into Safe Mode first and there were no problems. 
    I don't know if this issue is the one causing you these problems but it is a simple enough solution to try.

  • What is the best mac to get for downloading over 30,000 photos?

    what is the best mac to get for downloading over 30,000 photos?

    Download from where into what? What are you going to do with the photos?
    I agree with Larry that a Mac with an SSD boot drive and addtional standard drive is blazingly fast.  I have an iMac setup that way and it boots in 14 seconds.  With the system and applicaitons and iPhoto library on the SSD drive and most other documents, backup photos, etc. on the std. drive. it works beautifully.  However, I do not let the free space on the SSD drive get less than 50 GB.
    I also have an external HD that I sue with Time Maching to backup both my SSD and standard drive in the iMac.
