Ibooks - not showing edited version

Hi there!

I am encountering this issue with IBOOKS on my MAC.

I have used IBOOKSAUTHORS for writing a book. The first draft has been downloaded as nameofmybook.ibooks and I could view it and edit it through IBOOKS. I then sent the file to a someone's computer who added notes and highlights so as to edit the text.

Once I received back the updated version I couldn't see any changes, but only my previous version. I have tried out everything, by disabling sync and renaming it the file with the same old name. Nothing works.

Can you please help and tell me how I can possibly view the edited version of the book. Does IBOOKS not show edited versions that are made from other devices/computer?

Thanks a lot for your help/suggestions.

Best Regards

Miki

If you want someone to modify your book, you should send them the .iba file. iBooks Author cannot open an .ibooks file, those are only for reading with the iBooks app.
