Bookshelf App quit working after clicking on new button

iBookshelf is (was) an Apple App for books. I installed it several years ago from the App store. Yesterday it quit working when I hit the New button. My database is still there which I can search.


I searched for it in the App store and it is no longer there. I would have downloaded it again. The iBookshelf App has no Help function, no author or company listed.


Is anybody else experiencing this problem. I have a feeling that Apple themselves has caused this problem. After a user pays for a download is hould work forever.

I also experiecned the same thing.


In the app I found the web site for the publisher; www.verietassoftware.com but the web page is in Arabic for the Android app Honista.


I did send an email to: support@verietassoftware.com


Hi,

I noticed that your app ibookshelf stopped working and was quitting.

The iOS app store shows that the app is no longer available in my region.

Thought I’d touch bases here to see if there’s an update planned. If not can you offer any suggestions on how to move the data from ibookself to another app?

I was able to export a back up file but the file generated is a .bak file. I’m pretty sure that this is used to rebuild the data within ibookshelp if it’s somehow damaged.

Can you suggest another program that I can import the .bak file that’s generated? Thanks
