Resolving Book Synchronization Issues:
Sometimes a book you have doesn't quite sync up with the iGigBook index, here's a few tips for resolving these issues.
  • Make sure you're using the correct offset. From the Book List View, select the first tune, for best results choose the first tune that starts with the letter A. Tap the top portion of the screen until you get to the first page that isn't a song. The page number you see in the top status bar will be the offset that you need. To set the offset, press and hold any title in the Book List View.
  • Make sure your book has all of the pages. It's okay for a book to be missing pages in the beginning because you can correct that by adjusting the offset. If your book is missing pages in the middle of the book, the fastest and easiest way to get that book to sync up with the index is to add either the pages that are missing by scanning from the original book or by just adding blank pages.
  • If your book list only shows two items i.e. "Sample Book" and "Bach Cello Suites", try uninstalling iGigBook from iTunes and then re-installing it. Be sure to have internet connectivity when you launch iGigBook for the first time.
