Sep 14, 2016 4:30 PM in response to bobseufertby Diana.McCall,Aloha Bob. The iBook is now available as well. Just search in iBooks and download it. I'll bet you and I are the only ones who actually read these docs However, iBooks seems to have gone to an awkward single-page format. Maybe I have one setting too many.

Thank you. I found it late last night and should have a second thread somewhere with the link. I didn't notice the single page version until you mentioned it. It's horrible. In iBooks that's called scrolling view and when the had PDF's of updates they also used that view. Maybe we can impress upon Apple how much we dislike it so they'll change it back.
Stay well. Bob

"The page was on the Greek Store, yet was in Spanish for a Spanish version of an Apple iBook User Guide of iOS 9. I just thought y'all might like to know."
Plead temporary lunacy on the wrong version bit - I will testify that it happens all the time.

My apologies if my answer is confusing. I started two threads about IOS 10 and thought you were replying to the first thread. I'll repost the link to the internet version of the guide below.
Stay well. Bob.

Sep 15, 2016 4:48 AM in response to bobseufertby Diana.McCall,Hi. Regarding the iBooks view, what I don't get is that some older iBooks have changed also. For example, the 9.3 iPad guide.

Sep 15, 2016 5:22 AM in response to Diana.McCallby bobseufert,I don't like this one bit. I'll leave them a nasty message in capital letters, that should fix it.

Sep 15, 2016 8:11 AM in response to Diana.McCallby ChitlinsCC,[nosy me]
What you just report tells me (thinkin' outside the box) is that there may be something about the "New reader" - "readING" a particular iBook (a "glorified" PDF?) with maybe some special characteristics - NEW and OLD iBooks behave/display the same?
Of course, I have no way of helping with an ibook like I could if only a PDF
EDITadded
Aren't some (a lot?) iBooks "protected" in some way to ensure that only iBooksReader can read them?

Sep 15, 2016 8:29 AM in response to ChitlinsCCby Diana.McCall,It seems to me like they've changed the default view for landscape from two pages side by side to single page. It's not the scrolled view Bob mentioned because it still flips pages sideways, instead of scrolling like one long page. There's an annoying page flip animation as well. I wonder if it works this way on the big Pro, where it would be really laughable. I have another (purchased) iBook that still reads in the original side-by-side mode. So obviously the book has some control over its formatting. But there are no settings available to change the view.
And yes, these iBooks are locked into iBooks. You can open normal pdfs in iBooks or other apps, but iBooks are iBooks, period. I guess Apple didn't want their docs just floating around on the net.
