Helping a friend get his book up on the various bookstores, and I've been mostly successful, except for submitting to iBooks.

I'm somewhat new to doing ebooks, but Im working on it.

Basically, I did all the formatting in html, then converted it to Mobi using the KindleGen tool, which worked pretty good.
Submitted to Amazon no problem.

Then I used Calibre to convert it to ePub, and submitted it to B&N for the Nook, again no problem.

When I tried submitting the ePub to the iBookstore using Apples submission tool, I get a lot of errors, but if I just put it into my iBooks library on my phone, it opens no problem and looks just like it's supposed to.
