Me too after the update, but only for one aspect discussed here (although naturally we thank god for small favors):
- The full information and retrieval (but see 2 below) across my IOS on iPad (but not, I believe, on iPhone) and OS X is available and now synced (provided you choose that option wherever the **** it is (either/both iOS--can't remember at the moment all the choices--they're spelled out Books/Help on OSX);
- On OS X (not iOS) the PDFs open in Adobe Reader (and maybe the full Adobe); most everybody has that one, and if you don't (I checked by deleting it briefly) PDF will open in Preview.
This was discussed above and is still not fixed. No matter if you go to the discrete file via Finder, and then choose "Open with Books" AND (to save time from a suggestion above) you go to that file or any other and go to file information and apply Open with Books, either to that one file or you let it loose on all PDFs. No joy.
[Digression on this issue beyond my report from the trenches]
Which, I must say, intrigued me as an OS thing--I would have thought if a) the "open with" app bitched, the OS would at least kick back some sort of error message; and b) even more so, or arbitrary,is that it goes ahead and opens it with whichever they'll pdf reader it finds; and c) even more so than b), when you multiple PDF readers on your system, eg, as mentioned above, Preview (an Apple OSX integrated product, of course) and Adobe Reader, this continuing error defaults to Adobe (indeed, I have a number of third-part PDF apps for fancy markup, etc).
Which means--what?
a) Skullduggery at the crossroads by Adobe? Can't be. As we know, nobody, which here includes Adobe as we know with Flash, can fuck with Apple.
b) Apple cut a deal with Adobe? Can't be, because the of this (non-reported) error condition -- the discrete command "open with Books" not working but pretending it is -- does not even defaultly fuck up to an Apple product. Can't be.
Curious and curioser.
