Hello group,

I bought steve jobs biography on schiphol, when i left for a vacation to israel. I payed, downloaded and even read the book on the plane, until i was asked to close down the electric appliances and put my ipad in sleep- mode.

The next day i wanted to read further but i could not find the book in ibooks, not in the library and not in the list "bought but not in your ipad".
I tried the store but could not connect to the list "already bougt".... When i looked up steve jobs biography, i was suggested to download it, but i did not do that, as i already had bought and payed...

After returning to the Netherlands i opened my ibooks...no book. I went the list "not on ipad": no book. I connected to the store, went to the " already bougt" list and there it was ( with a cloud-sign next to it. After clicking the cloud-sign, i received the book (again).

Can anybody explain what happened? Does this mean that a book you bought and payed for, cannot be read in another zone, like the dvd-regions?

Thanks for your help,

Greetings from holland.

Was automatic download set to enable prior to downloading your book.
