"I like to use iBooks to buy and download books, it is very convenient to read books on iPhone with this tool.

Thank you very much!"

Reading books on a PC makes it more convenient for users to take notes, tap a word to find its meaning, save important content locally, or print notes as PDF. But as we all know, there is no official iBooks reader for PC, so you'll need to export iBooks from your iPhone/iPad to the computer at first and then read them. Here we will show you several ways to get the work done.

Getting iBooks for PC isn't a tricky thing, but if you want to transfer specific items to PC at a rapid speed, you'll set you up for disappointment since both iTunes and iCloud won't allow you to copy one or two iBooks from iPhone to PC. Thus, you have to turn to EaseUS MobiMover Pro - the iPhone data transfer software. With it installed on your PC, you can transfer books from iPhone to PC with a single click.

What's more, if you want to transfer files from PC to iPhone without iTunes syncing or sync data from iPhone to iPhone, MobiMover can meet your demands with comprehensive solutions. Now, read on and check how to back up iPhone books to your PC with EaseUS MobiMover.

Now, you can download it on your PC and transfer iBooks to computer.

Step 1. Connect your iPhone to your computer (Mac or PC). Open EaseUS MobiMover > choose "Phone to PC" > click the "Next" button on the main interface. If you want to transfer books from your iPhone to your computer selectively, click "Content Management" > "Others" > "Books" instead.

Step 2. MobiMover supports almost all the data types on your iPhone. Here, you can choose to transfer books only or with other data categories. Besides, you can set the path for saving exported files. If you don't make any change, MobiMover will keep them on your desktop.
