iPad: Purchased eBooks disappear - what to do?
If you also have the problem that purchased eBooks disappear in the iBooks app on your iPad, you can find the solution here. We will help you to ensure that your books no longer disappear.
That's why the eBooks disappear from the iBooks app
To prevent illegal activity, Apple has timestamped the eBooks it has purchased. That means you will go away after an unknown period of time unless Apple checks you online.
eBooks on the iPad - so your books no longer disappear
- Open the iBooks app on your iPad regularly. You need an internet connection so that the time stamp of the eBooks can be checked.
- If you are traveling and have no internet connection on the go, make sure that you open the app beforehand so that Apple can check and update its validity.
- How regularly you have to open the app so that the eBooks are checked is unfortunately not known. However, this will probably take a few weeks.
By the way, you can also read Epub eBooks on your iPad.
