Q: iBooks Author in a different version.
I have submitted one version of a book with many photos in the store in Dutch. This worked well.
Now I have duplicated the Dutch file and in a new name and made an English version of that book.
All works well and every detail has been changes to get the right result, but... in the preview I :
1 - got the english content and Dutch cover (though changed) both on my Mac and on the iPad
2 - naw after shutting down my computer I did a bit of fine tuning in the English version in iBAuthor and get the complete Dutch version in the preview.
Can anybody help me to solve this please?

I agree with Tom as I had a similar problem myself when I created an new iBook from an existing one rather than starting from a template.
I think I managed to fix the problem by opening the new book (the .iba file) in iBooks Author and then selecting File > Reset for iBooks Store... It doesn't matter if you never intend to publish you iBook via the iBooks Store. iBooks Author gives each book an internal ID and you need to force it to give your new book a new internal ID.
After doing this exporting as an iBook should give a book that doesn't get confused with your original iBook.
