From Italy: No Love!

I'm not sure what's going on in Italy, but there are two, one star reviews in the Italian iTunes store and both claim that iGigBook doesn't work, one claims that it is a ripoff and the other says don't buy it.

Non funziona é un furto!!!!!

Mi Sembra un pacco, non funziona! Non compratelo!

I don't know who these folks are, but I do know that version 1.43 of iGigBook is pretty solid and works quite well for thousands of people. I'd love to help them if I could but my experience has been that the person that leaves one star reviews is just looking to rant and isn't looking for or open to getting help.

How accessible is your PDF music collection?

The iPad can be a great gig tool if you have the right app. The right app is one that can enable you to realize the full potential of all of the real books and fake books that you own in PDF format.  There are lots of apps that allow you to store your PDF library on an iPad but you still need to check each book to find the song that you want.  With these apps, your library, though portable, still has limited accessibility.  

Just having the books on your iPad without the ability to search through all of them at once is like using the internet without a search engine.  To be truly useful and for you to realize the full potential of your music library, you need an app that will allow you to search though all of the books by song title or composer to find the one that you want, need or is called on a gig, jam session or rehearsal.  The app that you need and the app that you want is called iGigBook and is available now on the iTunes App Store.

Bookmarks Phase II

Version 1.43 of iGigBook adds a "Purge" button to the bookmark menu enabling you to bulk remove bookmarks that were imported or created. We've also added an "Import" button so that you can decide if you want to pull in the bookmarks from the PDF file that you are viewing.
