Anyone else have come across this problem where, when connecting an iPad or iPhone to sync and the books tab is missing? This is on a fairly recent and clean install of Ventura 13.6.6 on a M1 Mini. It worked previously and was able to sync before, but now I've tried with two different iPads and an iPhone and no Books tab for all three devices. Possibly a corrupt preference file? Really scratching my head on this one. Yes, I do know there are other ways to sync books, but my parter is a bit set in her ways...Thanks in advance for any insights.

yup, but that's not even close to the worst problem. then of course I checked for my huge collection of books in books app on mac mini - gone! all gone, but I'm running the latest version of Sonoma 14.5.
