Can't access iBooks in El Capitan...

So far adjusting to all the MANY changes but just got the following message...

iBooks Can't Access Your Library

Make sure the disk containing your library is connected, then click Try Again.

Library Location: (null)

You can also reset your library, then sign in to view and re-download your purchased books.

Any workaround or should I just wait for Apple update??

HELP!

MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11)

iBooks works fine on my other devices, but it won't even open on my new iMac. It tells me to reinstall the app, but the app doesn't show up in the App Store. It seems to me that the fix suggested here requires a computer genius. The program just ought to work, especially on a new $2,000 computer.

It work. Btw, backup the container books first.

Thanks a lot, it worked for me. Just one question, that folder that we've moved to the desktop (com.apple.BKAgentService) should it be kept on the desktop or can be deleted after restoring all the books?

Thank you for asking this question, mine just acted up and this fixed it perfectly!

Linc Davis is amazing with Apple!
