How can I hide a specific book on my new iPad?
I’m not new to Apple products. I’ve had a Mac since 2015 and an iPhone since 2016. It was with my iPhone that I started downloading free books from the iBook store. Once I accidentally downloaded a preview or the complete book (can’t remember which, but it appeared on my gallery) on sex advice (lol) instead of the book I was interested in. When I realized that, I managed to hide it both on my Mac and on my iPhone. The thing is... I got an iPad yesterday and as it belongs to my school I wasn’t the one setting everything up. I did use my Apple ID to have my Mac, my iPhone and the iPad with the same account. But when my teacher showed me how to export a pdf book to iBooks, the app opens, asks if I want to connect it to iCloud, I press “No” and next thing I know all of the books I had ever downloaded for free were there including the hidden one. I was super embarrassed. What I cannot understand is how could this happen if I did not accept to use iCloud with iBooks when the app asked me if I wanted to. But even if I did, shouldn’t it have shown the way it does on both my Mac and my iPhone? Currently I have like two or three books showing in “My Collection” as opposed to the 10 books that were shown in 2016. I removed some because I did not find them interesting (I am conscious that they still appear as my purchased books).
My iPad shows the 10 books as if it was late 2016. Why isn’t My Collection on my iPad updated as it is on both my Mac and my iPhone? How can I change this? The only possible way right now is to deactivate the option of showing my iCloud books but still the hidden one will keep showing when I activate that option again. Please help me. I’m very confused.
