About

iTunes Producer is a macOS application for submitting book details, pricing, and files to Apple Books. Its stated purpose is focused on book delivery; the available product information does not establish additional editing, catalog-management, or publishing capabilities.

  • Submit book details to Apple Books.
  • Submit book pricing information.
  • Submit book files.
  • The Homebrew cask installs the package iTunesProducer.pkg and provides an uninstall record for its package identifier.

To install it, run brew install --cask itunes-producer. The cask specifies a macOS dependency and requires Rosetta. The package is the desktop iTunes Producer tool; Apple Books also describes separate web-based publishing resources, which are not features of this cask entry.

For current Apple Books publishing guidance, consult Apple’s partner support page. The Homebrew cask provides the installer and installation details.
