Those who want to read e-books can do so on Apple iBookstore on their computer. However, the iBooks application only works on Apple devices, and won’t work on a desktop version.
If once downloaded, the books from iBookstore are in ePub format, and anyone can read it by using different desktop applications. If you want to read books on your computer, then first transfer the stored files from your iPad or iPhone to your PC.
Sync iBooks
If you select the right options and sync your iPad or iPhone with your PC, then it will place a copy of your books file to the PC. For this, you need to follow the steps below:
- Connect your iPad or whichever Apple device holds the book
- Open iTunes on your PC
- Click on your device, choosing from the options that appear on the screen
- Don’t click on the upward arrow, or it will disconnect your device
- Choose the Books option
- And check the Sync Books option
- However, if you don’t want all the books to be transferred to your PC, then switch the setting to Selected Books from All books
- Click on Sync
- The books are not transferred to Windows
Locate File
- Wait until the sync process is complete, and then click on Done. Return to the iTunes menu, and change the settings of the library.
- There will be a drop-down menu, using which you should select ‘Books’.
- Right-click on the book that you want to read on your Windows, and then select the option of “Show in Windows Explorer”.
- When Windows Explorer opens, then you can note down the location of the book, and move it to a more convenient location.
Don’t move the book from where it is originally located, because that can cause multiple problems with the iTunes library.
Now, you can use a third-party desktop reader application, and start reading the book. You can install any reader application, which is compatible with the ePub format.
Some of the best and popular choices that you have access to are Calibre, and FB Reader, as they work perfectly with the ePub format.
