I am following the steps in the first post of the thread. I have tried individual books and they are still removing the ePub format. I initially tried a bulk transfer of about 15 files and it gave me the following error message.

"ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device"

(2, 'No such file or directory')

Traceback (most recent call last):

Is there an iTunes setting that would be causing the deletion?

Take a look at the first post in this thread, in the section labeled Options. 'Use Series as Category in iTunes/iBooks' should be checked. That option will group all books of a series together when you have selected the list view in iBooks, and you're sorting by Categories. The series name/number are not shown in iBooks unless you've added edited the title of the book to include them.
I have the "Use Series as Category in iTunes/iBooks" box checked (per the instructions in the first post of the thread), but still to no avail.
