I'm fairly sure this is a shot in the dark at this point, but I'm asking just in case someone knows something I don't ...
I've been trying in vain to export my books from iBooks in Mavericks, with the objective of importing them into iTunes running on an installation using Mountain Lion. From my web searches, I gather that dragging a book from iBooks to a folder or the desktop will produce a copy of the book with its original file name, instead of the new internal format used by iBooks after conversion from iTunes on Mavericks. Unfortunately I have had no success doing this; I can't use any VO technique and even physical mouse movement to perform the drag operation. I'm going to spare you the rant about iBooks, what is symbolises for Apple's accessibility commitment and the general direction of OS X, and how it represents a downgrade for more than just blind users. Does anybody know of a keyboard way to perform this supposed export? There are no menu commands--even Command-C Command-V don't work here (but Command-A works, to select all). I've investigated the structure of the iBooks container. The filenames have all been garbled, except for PDFs, and only some of the EPub books are uncompressed while others are not. Some of the EPub files are self-imported from iTunes, and were not bought on store. If there's no other option but to try and redownload the books from their original source, I suppose I might be able to parse these files looking for indications of where they came from, and proceed accordingly. Still, I'd like to exhaust the other possibilities first, if possible. Any help appreciated.
