I've bought a book but in iBooks it says paused. How can I get it downloaded?

I downloaded a book from iTunes and I have synced to my iPad and phone. It won't download properly on ipad as it says paused on the iBook shelf but ok to read on phone.

iPad 2, iOS 5.1.1

Welcome to the Apple Community.


Try deleting the problematic book (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iBook store.


You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
