Apple has recently updated its iBooks iOS app, fixing a bug that caused some e-textbooks to not open properly.
The new version of the app is described rather vaguely in iBooks' release notes as:
iBooks 2.0.1 addresses an issue where iBooks textbooks may not open.However, Apple further elaborated on the issue in a statement sent to USA Today. The statement read:
We're aware of a small number of iBooks 2 users having issues with the playback of the introduction movies when opening iBooks textbooks. It will be fixed soon in an upcoming software update.I haven't encountered such an issue, but then again I haven't consumed a large amount of e-textbooks via the "iBooks 2" app. If you've found that introductory movies in e-textbooks haven't been playing properly, the latest version of iBooks (2.0.1) should fix the issue. You can download the universal iBooks application in the App Store free of charge. [via MacRumors]
