Q: Lost books

My friend signed into her iCloud through my phone. When she signed in we didn't delete any of the data from my own iCloud. she was only signed in for about 5 minutes, but when I signed back onto my iCloud I had everything except the books on my ibooks! This may not seem big but I had over 100 books on it and I really don't want to have lose them. Is there anyway I can restore them from my phone. Thanks

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.3.1

Hi Staceye123,

I understand that you want to get your books that were in iBooks back.I can help you out with that.

If the books were purchased through the iBooks Store, you can download them right them from the Purchased Tab when you open the app. Take a look at the article below to go over how to download any previous purchase that you made on your iPhone.

Download your past purchases

If the books were not purchased from the iBooks Store, you would need to either download them from their original source or you sync them via iTunes. Take a look at the next article to go over syncing with iTunes.

Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iTunes using USB
