Hi, all,
I’m a little confused about syncing issues in iBooks for the Mac. I have some
epub non-drm books that I like to read on my iPod and my Mac. As far as I can
tell, neither iTunes nor iBooks will sync these. Is this correct?
Thanks,

I thought Time Machine was the problem, so turned it off, but that made no

If I’m understanding your question correctly, you’re wanting to sort the items

VO-shift-back slash to bring focus to the Reference tabs. Press VO-up or down
to access the Column Reference tab then VO-space to activate.
