Books App on the Mac

Hi all, I thought I would have a look at the books app on the Mac to see how it worked. I can not find all of my audio books in the books app on the Mac, but they all show up on my phone. All of the books that I had in the old iTunes app are showing up in the books app on the Mac, but the new

Re: How do I share an EPUB file in books with someone?

If the book isn’t copy protected and you have something like voice dream reader I thought you might be able to move the file from the books app into voice dream reader and share it that way? I’ve moved books from the books app to voice dream reader before. > On 12/01/2020, at 14:57, David

Hi, If this is on iOS or iPadOS, try tapping the Library tab, locate the title you wish to share, swipe up/down to hear Show Actions Pop-Over, then double-tap. You should have Copy, Share book, and a bunch of other choices. Double-tap Share Book and see if that does the trick. Later...
