I developed a 283 MB iBook using iBook Author and transferred to my IPad but it will not open. I have restarted devices and updated iTunes without resolution of the problem. I would appreciate your help. Thanks.

You might have better luck posting this in the iBooks support forum - but it sounds like you left out a step before it left your Mac. - How did you export the finished book? What file format is it in?

I submitted my question under iBooks.
I opened my book using iBooks Author. I saved a version. I locked it. Under file, I selected publish. My iPad was connected. From the MacBook, I selected the iPad as the device. My book appears on my iPad but when I try to open, my iPad screen goes to the home screen and the book will not open.
Before completing the book, I often successfully previewed my work in progress. Even now I can preview each chapter successfully. I tried deleting half of the text and previewing this. It would not open on my iPad. Thanks for help.
I misspoke above. I pushed PREVIEW, not publish. I am attempting to preview at this time, not publish. Should I try to publish since I have checked each chapter or should I resolve this preview issue before proceeding. Again I thank you.
You need to use the "Share" - export function to get it on your iPad. The File - Publish is for getting the book into the iBookstore. You can do that too, any easy way is open a free account at LuLu.
