Why can't I publish to IPad w/o having to buy a Mac?

No one else requires that people buy an OS they do not already have.

The iPad can get books from lots of other places besides the iBookstore, so you certainly do not need a Mac to produce something it can read.
If you want to publish to the iBookstore, you can use an aggregator.  Apple has an approved list of them.

  • If iPad mini has the basic iPad 2 hardware, why can't use Siri on iPad 2?

    If iPad mini has the basic iPad 2 hardware, why can't use Siri on iPad 2?

    Wrong on all counts. Well except for the A5 post.
    The 3rd Generation iPad and iPhone 4s both have an Audience chipset for noise suppression/voice recognition that the iPad 2 et. al. do not have. The iPhone 5, 5th Generation iPod Touch, 4th Generation iPad and iPad Mini are using a different type of hardware based noise suppression/voice recognition that is an improvement over the Audience chipset (hope you didn't have Audience stock).

  • Why cAn't I sync my iPad?

    Why can't I sync this IPad?
    I think I have tried everything

    What message are you getting, if any?
    Is your iPad showing up in iTunes when you connect it? If not, unplug it from the computer and re-plug it. Sometimes it is best to try a different USB port.

    Why can't I sync my ipad air w/ my older Dell Computer?

    Start iTunes on the computer.
    Connect your iPad to the computer.
    SELECT your iPad in iTunes. Look for the small device icon in the top bar of iTunes. Click on that.
    A sidebar should be on the left.
    Select the Music, Photos, videos, App etc. that you want to have on your iPad.,
    Then click on Sync or Apply whichever shows.

    You can send them by email or MMS. You can use a service such as DropBox. You can transfer the photos to a computer and from there to the other device.

  • Why can't I get my ipad 2 to charge?

    why can't I get my ipad 2 to charge?  I have never had this problem before.  I have tried two different chargers.  I have tried it via the computer.  I have turned the ipad off and on.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

    Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
    When you're swapping out chargers, make sure you're using an iPad charger. It is different from an iPhone one (iPhone chargers put out about half the power)
    Charging via USB will likley tell you that it's not charging because most USB's put out a fraction of the power that the iPad wants, so it says not charging.
    ALso try different outlets and cables if you have them
    If you go through all that and still can't get it to charge then you may need to make an appointment at your local apple store and have them look at it.

  • Why can't i connect my ipad to home wireless?

    why can't i connect my ipad to home wireless?

    Is your iPad seeing the Router SSID (Network Name) in the list of networks?  If so what happens when you try to select it? Are you asked for a password? If the network isn't secure then it won't ask you for a password and you should just connect.

  • Why can't I update my iPad 3G to IOS 5? It is stuck at IOS 4.2.

    Why can't I update my iPad 3G from IOS 4.2 to IOS 5? iTunes says that no upgrades are available for the iPad but it updated my iPhone 4 and iPod Touch to IOS 5.

    No idea. What exactly is it that you see when you connect to iTunes (provide complete text, please).
    But, before doing that, bring both your iPad and your computer/iTunes combination back to a 'clean' configuration; on the iPad do a Reset, on the computer at a minimum log out and in of your user account (in OS X,  or whatever the Windoze equivalent would be) or if you prefer just do a Restart. If any flags are incorrectly set anywhere that should set them back to their proper states and, if that happens, you'll be in business when you connect and will see the update available.

  • Why can't I use the iPad as my smartphone?

    My basic question is,why can't I use the IPad as my smartphone? Ipad is doing everything what a smartphone does, except the calling facilities. Since IPad can connect to the Internet(WiFi), and via VOIP services like skype or yahoo, we can very well connect to any mobile or landline phone. So what I'm asking is, Ipad can very well provide some User interface as phone does and internally it can use the VOIP to connect to phones. Share your views.

    My basic question is,why can't I use the IPad as my smartphone?
    You can as long as you don't want to make calls over a mobile phone network as the iPad doesn't have the hardware to make calls that way.
    At least we'll be able to recognise you on a call:

  • HT1386 Why can't I sync my iPad to pc, it says this iPad cannot be used because the apple mobile device service is not started

    Why can't I sync my iPad to pc, it says this iPad cannot be used because the Apple mobile device service is not stated, the last time they were synced was December and I had no problem.

    Log in as an Admin User on your PC. Type 'Services' in the search area above when you click on start. (or see control panel and select Admistrative Tools.)
    Select the Services shortcut.  In the window that appears with your listed service, navigate to ipod service, Apple Mobile Device service, and, Bonjour Services.  Doubleclick them to get the property page.  Change startup to automatic, click apply.  Then click start,
    There is a known issue that when iTunes updates it incorrectly sets the Service startup type - this is normally due to installations on Vista and win7 services and  drivers that run in the Local Sstem requiring Admin account permissions that are not always granted with User Account Elevation, when running installations or updates in User account.
    Normally the Local System is set to inherit the User account permission token when being set up - but Apple in their infinite wisdom have a higher token in place for their services.  so a standard user cannot derogate the required elevation, even with the UAC to admin prompt, since the local system is owned by the Machine account and only Admin, bBackup, Restore, Machine, operator accounts carry the same descriptor permissions on process ownership to set these services correctly.
    Third party security programs, such as Kaspersky can also limit installations by User account installations, which adds to the problem.  I have had a few installations fail, even in Admin mode - because Kaspersky sits on par with the Main Machine Administrator account for watching program and installation directories and registry keys - (which have  higher privilege levels in some respects than the ordinary Admin account you normally start a new machine in before you add any other user accounts- all very confusing - but that's Microsoft all over for you.
    Follow Ralph's advice if you do not have the necessary software already installed.  You should install Apple's Application Management Software - which will look after the installation of all required elements for you and notify you of updates pending.  In options have it set to Notify only - not all updates may be requred, and this option allows you to see what is being installed.  It is good practice to set all updating software to Notify only - especially any thirdparty software - much of which carry all sorts of little 'extra's' you  may not need or want.
    It is also good practice to keep an eye on your Program and Features option in control panel, just to see what is being installed and when - including Windows updates.
    Sorry about the long reply, but with December being your last sync - a lot can change in the meantime. Best be prepared.
    Best wishes, Ct

  • Why can't I publish to iWeb?

    I like iWeb. Surprisingly, it was just updated by Apple. Why can't I publish directly from Aperture to iWeb?

    I think you would benefit from further exploration of the choices under the File/New menu, and to watch:
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/how-to/#video-web
    I think you will find that iWeb can see what you then create in its access via the Media Browser, and can even change and apply its own themes.
    Keep in mind that galleries published to your iDisk, if that is you method, will be gone after June 30, 2012 from any source.
    I have found the use of SmugMug to publish galleries far more satisfactory than MobileMe, and never really used iWeb to publish to anywhere except MobileMe.
    Also keep in mind that iWeb is not a destination, but only a FTP, and you have not said to where you have been publishing.

  • HT4623 Why can't my 1st generation iPad update to iOS 6?  Memory is not an issue.

    Why can't my 1st generation iPad update to iOS 6 when memory is not an issue?

    The first gen iPad has a slower processor (A4) than the iPad 2 (dual-core A5) and iPad 3 (dual-core A5X) and 4 (A6X), and it also has less memory - 256 meg, compared to the iPad 2's 512 meg and the iPad 3 and 4's 1024 meg. My first gen iPad got noticeably slower with iOS 5 than it was with iOS 4, so I doubt that it could cope with iOS 6.
