Is there a way for a company like Apple to secretly buy back stock? I feel like at one point it would show up in the books...

Not really, no. There are laws in place to force transparency in stuff like this, and rightfully so.

Don't know about secretly (they could probably set up a stealth LLC and file it under "strategic investment"), but they've had a stock buyback program for a while.
