I follow all the steps and still can’t see my pdf files in ibook on my ipod touch 3rd (gen with latest software), though I can see my pdf books under “books” icon in my itunes; Is books in itunes different than ibooks in ipod’s application? In my ipod touch 3rd, I cannot see “books” icon in the home page. I can only access ibook from applications, which means I will need to use wifi to connect it. Can’t I download free books to my ipod touch if the book is free and read it offline? My ipod touch doesn’t connect my home wifi even after I gives password for wifi. Don’t know what to do now.
Can anyone help? I’m using iTunes v10 which allows the user to drag and drop a pdf straight into it which can then be added to any iTunes device, however the pages of the pdf are not scaled for my iPhone screen as (as far as I can see) all iBooks do. Hmmm OK they are scaled to fit the whole page onto the screen but it is unreadable as it is too small. Is there a way (app?) to trim each pdf page so it fits without having to finger pinch the screen to zoom in and then continually scroll the page both left/right and up/down to read the pdf? Hey Friends, it’s really easy to put the PDF files in your iPod touch. Manke sure you have the iBook app (can downoad for free from Itunes store and just takes 5 minutes to install in iPod touch).
What you have to do is: 1. Connect Ipod touch with PC and make sure iTunes is runing.
(iTunes 10 and later versions+iOS 4.2 or later) 2. In iTunes, click on the books option in left side menu items. Drag your PDF files in the books, your PDF books with pictures will be displayed there. Select your iPod touch in itunes-> go to Books section in iTunes and click on Sync. All your PDF books from iPod Tuoch will be moved in iBooks library. Open and enjoy:) •.
