Apple iTunes 10.5.3 now available for download, brings support for iBooks textbook syncing with your iPad

Coming as one would expect after an Apple announcement that involves the iPhone or iPad — we now have another update for iTunes. Yup, Apple has officially rolled out iTunes version 10.5.3 and with the new version number comes one new feature, the ability to sync interactive iBooks textbooks to your iPad.

What’s new in iTunes 10.5.3

iTunes 10.5.3 allows you to sync interactive iBooks textbooks to your iPad. These Multi-Touch textbooks are available for purchase from the iTunes Store on your Mac or from the iBookstore included with iBooks 2 on your iPad.

iBooks textbooks are created with iBooks Author — now available as a free download on the Mac App Store

The latest version of iTunes can be found directly on the Apple site and it should also begin to show up as an update prompt through your software update. Otherwise, we should point out that those looking for a bit more in-depth coverage of anything Apple can always head over to our sister site — Appletell.
