I make an ePub2 and load on, e.g, an iPad, and open in iBooks.
Works fine.
Later I update the book and replace the file -- delete it from iBooks first.
If I have added chapters, made a new TOC, they are not shown in the TOC in iBooks.
It seems to retain the original TOC, and other metadata too I think, is not updated.
Only if I change the unique ID in the OPF will it reread the metadata.
If I make ePub3, metadata including TOC is updated correctly from a new file, even with same UID.
Possibly this has changed, but that's how it was a year or so ago, have updated the OS a few times since I worked that out and iBooks is now Books. But found discussion on this going back years on Apple forums so I doubt they have fixed it. Screwing with books you didn't buy from them is a feature, not a bug.

Yes. That's the only version I have. Doubt later versions will run.
It makes mobi KF7 and 8 and not interested in KPX, so didn't worry about it.
Upgrading my OS has been on my to-do list for a few years now. 2021 may be the year I actually do it.
