iBook or Tablet?

I have always used a desktop computer.  Now, I need to be mobile.  Should I buy an iBook or a Tablet?  What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?  Which is more compatible with the iMaC OS X 10.10?

I own both an iPad and a MacBook laptop, so it's something I can answer... sorta a little. First of all, so that the Apple iPad is compatible with OS X 10.10, which does not mean that it works the MacOS. The iPad and the iPhone run a variant of the Mac called iOS operating system. So if you want to run Mac software you have buy a Macintosh laptop. An iPad is compatible with Yosemite in the sense that given that you create on the Mac, for the most part, can be used and even edited in a software similar on the iPad. I use Microsoft Word on my MBP and can change those files (or even start new Word) on my iPad. But the iPad version of Windows has all the features of the Mac version. It is fairly typical of Mac/iOS software. Mac programs are richer in functionality than the versions of the iPad.

The iPad shines in portability. I use mine all day for 12 to 14 hours before it needs a recharge while my MBP Gets a little longer than half that. The iPad is smaller and weighs much less. I took on the TRIPS Agreement without my computer and missed the computer not at all, or only a few. But there are some things that are simply more easy to do on the computer. In short, I might not do an iPad replace my computer entirely but it's a great complement to it.

  • iBook ios10 problems

    Changes to the ibook in ios10 are NOT an improvement:

    1. the two page mode is now can be used with very small font

    2 the Library button is missing

    3. the function of the word define disappeared

    I liked my ibook so much, but now I really hate that!

    An improvement would have been to create a way to automatically sort books alphabetically by author and title.

    Please - at least back to where it was.

  • Download Books epub synched in iBooks

    I love being able to sync my own books packed with iBooks epub, I can easily share my books between my multiple devices.  I create books epub for the things that I'm referencing or past newspapers and want them on multiple devices, so this works great.  I used to keep my icloud, yes I know that these two used my iCloud storage space and I then have to transfer iBooks to open it.  It is wonderful to be able to have everything in iBooks and sorted.  The problem is then how I then down the file on my computer to be updated no later than the time when necessary.  I checked my iCloud drive on my Mac and there is not a folder iBooks and iBooks do not have an export or save option.

    Is it possible to do this easily?

    Drag the iBooks file in your mac to a folder, and it will create a copy of your book. Delete it all, update the epub and add it back to ibooks

  • iBooks: opening book shows window without content

    When I open a book of the iBooks Library window, after the opening of the book animation I just get a transparent surface on the screen were the book should be, see the image below.

    This seems to happen to all the books, including any recently re-uploaded. As well as at the opening of the books directly from the finder. A PDF file in the library seems to open in 'Preview' without problem.

    This problem did not exist before the upgrade to Sierra.

    iBooks - version 1.6 (1240)

    Greetings..., Paul

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that when you open a book in iBooks library window, you see a transparent area on the screen where the iBook should be. What happens to all the books, and it is a new show since the upgrade to Sierra. I certainly know that it is important to be able to access all your iBooks on your iMac, I read a lot of things on my own. Let's see how I can help with that.

    First of all, please leave iBooks and restart your Mac. Once you have restarted, open iBooks and see if you get the same result.

    If you still have a problem after reboot, please use the following article to create a new user on your Mac and test this issue here: How to test a problem in another user on your Mac account.

    In a new user test can help circumvent the problem of your main account to the whole system.

    Best regards.

    Since this morning after an update to the iPad, iBooks is showing the book pages in two columns instead of a full page, from left to right.  How can I change this back to a page on the screen?
