How does my new ebook downloading support page look?

Falbe Publishing · 09-07-2010, 03:29 PM

Because so many people are using so many different devices, I've finally started a page at one of my websites to hopefully help people who may encounter downloading troubles with my ebooks.

If any of you wondrously techie people are interested in taking a look and providing feedback, it would be very nice of you. I've gathered the info from various sources, but I'd hate to have published a support page that says something wrong.

The page covers:

- using itunes to add epub ebooks to ipad
- downloading to Stanza for iphone
- adding ebooks from computer to Nook
- adding ebooks from computer to Kindle

Most of my readers do just fine, but I made this page because I've been getting inquiries mostly from ipad and iphone users. Apple's "walled garden" causes some frustration when people actually want something from an independent source. At least it is possible to do.

It's a very nice looking page, and useful, too. Even though I don't have any of those devices, my friends do, so it's good to know where to look when they need help.

Thanks

I would just note that, regarding your instructions for adding books to iBooks, your procedure is a little over-complex. All you need to is plug in the plug in the device, open iTunes, then drag and drop the book directly onto the "Books" page of the device in iTunes. Absolutely no need to add it to the iTunes library first and then sync.

Thanks for the info HarryT. I'll try to refine that segment.
