Hi everyone, I am not sure about the legalities of this but since ibooks on the mac is rather inaccessible with a braille display and even though you can use a braille display on ios it just does not feel as comfortable as reading braille on a mac to me. So, i got this tip from an acquaintance of mine and thought i would share. Since this is a free and apparently unprotected ibook (this does not neccessarily go hand in hand, some paid ibooks are protected others are not). It is actually possi ble to read the ibook on the mac with safari. Epub apparently is just a container, at least the text of the ibook is some kind of html. to do this: - imho its easiest to download the book on ios, make sure to open it as well on that device. - then open ibooks on the mac, it will ask you for your apple id so it can sync with icloud - open the book on the mac once as well. - then go to the finder and use the go to folder commando (cmd+shift+g) and paste the following path ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books this is the folder where apple stores the ibooks that you have downloaded onto your mac. The books are given a random number, in my case since the book was the last one i added it was easy to find just by looking at the date modified column. - go to that folder and then to the underlying ops folder. Here you will find the chapter files. Its perhaps a good idea to copy the whole book to a different folder so that it will be easier to find in future. hth Greetings, Anouk,
