Hi there- i'm an teacher for blind students and i've noticed that recently voiceover gestures seem to have changed for ibooks- in particular i'm finding i can no longer touch and select individual words only a page of text at a time. This feature was great for my students with low vision- any thoughts on this?

I've read that IBooks has three kinds of page layout Book, Full Screen, and Scroll. However I can't find where to find those settings using voice over. I am using IOS 9.1, I found it's already preinstalled. How can I change my page layout?

Hey guys, just got iBooks and whenever I try to download the free Winnie the Pooh book the progress bar will move all the way across as if it's finished but it won't actually finish at all.
I went to Store -> Purchased -> Redownload but it still didn't work at all.
Haven't tried any other books because I don't want to waste any money yet.
Anyone else having this issue or have any tips? Thanks

hi, i'm having a strange problem with my ibooks ap, and i'm wondering if anyone else has come across it and found a sollution. I read quite a lot of ibooks in the ap, and usually everything works as expected''' i do the 2 finger swipe down to read continuously and leave it to it. but with my current book, VO reads half a page, then skips down to the top of the following page. If i explore the screen, the rest of the text is there, but for some reason VO just skips over it.

The subject line states the question. Using iOS 6.1.2 on an iPhone 5, the problem occurs with all of my ibook downloads. Is this normal behavior or can someone suggest a solution? Many thanks. Scott

Hello,
I've been an avid ibooks user for the longest time, but I just got a book, isee by david woodbridge, as well as a few others, that are done up in a different format. They seem to be interactive books. is there a tutorial on how to navigate those?

Hi Everyone,
I have read many posts and reviews about the iOS app Voice Dream Reader.
I am unable to understand how Voice Dream Reader is different from iBooks apart from the Google and Dropbox integration and a few extra text to speech voices.
Can anyone help me understand the differences? Thanks!

Hello, I am attempting to use Ibooks on an iPad ii. with the logitech bluetooth keyboard. I can get to the page chooser, but I can not read the page. Can anyone help. I have done it before, but I forgot ho. Thank you.

While in iBooks, when I touch the screen, I do not hear the text of the words spoken as I run my finger down the screen. I simply hear a "ping" sound. However, if I do a two-finger swipe down, the text is read to me. It is not specific to any book. This behavior does not happen on my 5th gen Touch, nor on my iPad mini, all of which are running IOS 7. So, I'm thinking this is specific to the 5S. Has anyone else noticed this? I have written to Apple Accessibility about this and hopefully, they can replicate it and this issue will be corrected.

Hello:
I am able to add or remove bookmarks when reading a book in iBooks but is there a bookmark list I can access to go back to a previously created one?
Thanks very much.

So there's a new app out called Ice Cubes which is in beta, but released to the App Store very recently. I know most Mastodon users already have their app of choice, but it doesn't hurt to have one more especially since this one's open-source.

I have found that when using the PC with iCloud and syncing bookmarks with chrome to my iphone, I have to enable the extension to do make it work. When I do, for some reason when I alt-left arrow to go back a page, the iCloud extension message popps up on the computer. I can not go back a page. I have to disable the extension for chrome to work correctly on the computer. Anyone found a better solution to sync bookmarks with chrome on the computer with the iPhone?

Since upgrading to iOS 9 on my iPhone and iPad Mini, I have experienced two different problems. Can anyone confirm either if the following:
1. After upgrading using iTunes on my iPhone, iCloud no longer performs automatic back ups, and a manual back up results in an error message "The last iCloud back up could not be completed".

Hi all, Got my new iPhone mini earlier in July. I am still getting a notification that the phone cannot be backed up to iCloud. Is Apple wanting me to buy more storage? I also read that (and maybe I misunderstood) but that it could take up to 180 days for my old phone stuff to not be in iCloud? So should I wait or do I really need to buy more storage? Also I think my phone said I had 2.5 of 5.00 Gb. Thanks for any help.

Hello Applevis
I am trying to get the Voice Dream Reader App on my iPad to synk with my iPhone but a message comes up that says iCloud is disabled. I have iCloud Drive enabled, VRD is enabled, but when I select the cloud synck option, it says iCloud can't be enabled. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app.
Any suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks
