It had to be some kind of iDrive sync bug.
That hurts, sorry to hear. iCloud drive supports files sync for files 50GB or less in size. Have you experienced sync issues with iCloud drive too? Or with Dropbox?
- crazygringo 6y agoNope, no data loss issues with iCloud Drive files directly (or Dropbox). My hypothesis is that Books does something wonky with metadata for extra sync logic, like it depends on reading the last "last page read" record but then sometimes fails to write that, and then loses the pointer to the new version altogether. I can't be sure, but I can't think of any other explanation.
