Connect Calibre to iPad
I am trying to connect Calibre to my iPad. I have been using these instructions to configure Calibre...
Launch calibre, set Preferences: Preferences|Behavior|Preferred output format to EPUB Preferences|Conversion|common options|page setup|Output profile to iPad With the Apple iTunes interface selected, click Customize plugin. Set 'Copy files to iTunes Media folder…' is enabled in iTunes Advanced|Preferences to match the setting of the similar option in the iTunes Preferences|Advanced dialog step above. If the option is checked in both dialogs, iTunes will make copies of transferred books in your iTunes Media folder. If the option is unchecked in both dialogs, copies will be made in your calibre configuration directory. Regardless of your choice, both options should be set the same. Enable the formats you want to transfer to iTunes. iBooks supports both epub and pdf formats. Restart calibre. Select Connect/Share↓Connect to iTunes to connect iTunes as a Reader device. To send epubs or PDFs from calibre to iTunes: Select the book(s) to send from your calibre Library window, then click Send to device. Your books are added to the 'Books' playlist in your iTunes library. Things went OK until I get to Select Connect/Share↓Connect to iTunes to connect iTunes as a Reader device. Can't for the life of me figure how to Select Connect/Share |

I have zero experience with Apple devices, but the instructions in the following sticky post may help. Calibre + Apple iDevices: Start here

This will be true if you are running Windows or a version of OS X earlier than 10.9 (Mavericks). If you are running Linux or OS X 10.9, 'Connect to iTunes' will not be visible. For more information about why it's disabled under OS X 10.9, see this thread. G Last edited by GRiker; 10-26-2013 at 08:37 AM. |
