Tagged: ibooks proof sync
After opening a proof with iBooks on my Mac for the umpteenth time, I somehow stumbled across the proofing procedure under the “Advanced” menu.
Instructions are at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204531
HOWEVER, the final step–in which you sync ePub proofs with your iOS device–doesn’t work, because the device doesn’t show up after I click the “Device” button in iBooks on my Mac.
Any ideas on a solution?
George,
I would try uploading your file to Dropbox and sideloading your book that way, it’s less of a headache than using iBooks. One reason for not using iBooks, besides it being a cumbersome process, is that iBooks inserts a file into your ePub which causes it to not validate when you upload it to retailers, even to the iBook Store. Ironic but true.
