I've downloaded audio books successfully to my iPod, but they don't show up on my iTunes.. and I want to delete some.

I've successfully downloaded audio books to my iPod for years but now they don't show up on iTunes, not under Music, not under books or Audiobooks - nowhere!
And I want to delete some...

Hello, mimi2216. 
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
This could be a result of Automatic Downloads not being enabled, the apps were too large to download via the cellular data network or a cellular data connection was not available at the time of download.  The best option would be to download the missing apps via the steps in the second article below.

  • HT201269 I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone, how do i get them back.  when I sync my phone, itunes says that they have been selected, but they don't show up on my phone

    I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone.  the iTunes sync page says that they have all been selected but they don't show up in my phone? Help?

    I had the same problem and was able to fix it. Go to your iTunes and click on the Tones folder on the left under library. Some of my ring tones had an exclamation mark next to it and those were the ones that did not sync. You have to click on those and find it in your computer. Once the exclamation mark is gone, go to Tones section of your device in iTunes, make sure you select the tones you want synced, and click apply. I hope that helps you!

    I've read the 'How to re-download' article but it doesn't address my problem. They just aren't showing either as purchased or downloaded on my iPhone...but if I connect my iPhone to my PC and select Tones from the dropdown list, they are all there. How can I get them to show on my phone or why don't they show...??
    I tried to re-download one of them and I got a message saying..."you've purchased this before, do you want to purchase again?"
    does anyone have an answers...??

    When you look at your iPhone, are you looking in the Music app or in the iTunes app?  Be sure you are looking in the Music app, and look in the Songs category.  If your songs are not here, you may want to try syncing your information again through iTunes.  To do this, uncheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync in the bottom right corner of iTunes, and then recheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync again. 
    I hope this helps!

  • Itunes says it has downloaded my apps but they don't show on my screen

    My daughter and I each have an ipod touch--hers is downloading apps but mine is not.  It says it is doing it when I plug it into the computer (I have opted to manually sync items since we share an itunes library) but the apps are not on my ipod.
    help please?

    I have realized what is probably the root of the problem. When I saved my photos on to my PC I transferred them using the 'cut' method. So they do not appear on the phone. But the phone still seems to have them saved somehow, but I cannot access them.

  • When I download a song or I take a picture,they don't show at the. Media home

    I can't access my media files in media home

    I reccomend you reload the device software through BlackBerry desktop software. Click update, view other versions, and click your curent version.
    It is also possible that your media card is not properly inserted, re insert the media card and see if that helps. Good luck and let me know.

  • HT1689 Does anyone have experience downloading audio books while in Europe from a U.S. account?

    Does anyone have experience downloading audio books in Europe using a U.S. account?

    The terms of the iTunes Store state that you agree not to use or even attempt to use the US iTunes Store from outside the US. Sorry, then, but we cannot discuss that issue here.

  • I tried to add sf2 instruments.  I put them in the audio/banks file but they do not show up in the DSL instruments on Garage Band.  Why not?

    How can I get sf2 intruments that I've downloaded to use in my GarageBand?  I have downloaded them and have put them both in the GarageBand instruments folder and the Audio/Banks folder of my Library, but they do not show up in GarageBand on the DSL instruments as they should.  I have some instruments in that category that I must have put in before, but can't find them in the audio/banks folder or the GarageBand instruments folder and cannot locate them with a my computer finder anywhere.  They are listed in the DSL instruments on GarageBand when I open the program.  Is there another library that this version of GarageBand can be using??  I have GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.4)d, which was updated a while back.  I had the previous version of GarageBand with a diffent system quite a bit earlier.  I've look in the "previous system" folder as well, and cannot find the instruments, or an audio/banks folder at all.

    Mortimer,  iTunes does not know when you restore a file.  After you restore the file, you need to re-add the file to iTunes.
    If you know exactly which files you restores, re-add them using File > Add File to LIbrary.
    Otherwise, lre-add the folders.  iTunes has certain safeguards to reduce duplicates when you do this, which are not perfect but are better than nothing.  Start with a few small folders and see if you are happy with the results.

  • I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it.  I cannot figure out how to do that.  The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device.  Does this kind of download have to run through itunes?  Thanks

    Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device. The following is general information on iTunes sync: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 and the following is a previous discussion where the post by Andreas Junge helped others that had a problem syncing audiobooks: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20052732#20052732

  • HT3951 When I download audio books from the library why can't Isee the files in itunes. All of the chapters do not transfer.

    When I download audio books from the library I can't find them in my itunes files.  All of the chapters do not transfer to my itouch even though they all were downloaded.

    I finally figured it out!  On the book page of itunes I went to preferences and then import settings and changed the settings from aac to mp3 and when I went back to the page there was my itouch and clicked on it and then books and there were all my books and files! deleted 3 chapters that were greyed out and transfered them again and it worked.  Thank you for your help.

  • Downloaded audio book on my iphone does not appear in itunes library and i cannot update iOS without transfering it to library

    Downloaded audio book to my iphone does not appear in my itunes library and i cannot update iOS without transfering it to library

    You should be able to copy it over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
    Audiobooks are a one-time only download from the store, so you may want to take a backup copy of it when you've copied it over to your computer

  • Need to re download audio book

    Hi I bought an audio book a few months ago but since then my iPad was faulty and I have been issued a new one. However I cannot re download the audiobook I purchased. I do not want to have to pay again is there a way of re downloading it?

    If you haven't got a copy of it anywhere (e.g. is it in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library or on you backup of your downloads) then you will need to try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download (audiobooks are currently a one-time only download) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • HT2673 error in downloading audio book from itunes

    I downloaded audio book but it will not play stating a message that my iphone is not connected to internet which it is connected

    Hello Bobejoe,
    You will want to change the file type to Audiobook for each audio book track in iTunes. To do this, locate the tracks you wish to change the *Media Type* for. Then right->click on each of those tracks and choose "Get Info" from the shortcut menu. From there, head over to the Options tab. There is a section labeled *Media Type* with a drop down box next to it. Go ahead and choose Audiobook, and then sync the updated changes to your iPod.
    That should do the trick for you.

  • I downloaded audio books from overdrive media and my ipod nano 6th generation showed it was transferring why can't I find the audio books on my ipod?

    I downloaded audio books from overdrive media and my ipod nano 6th generation showed it was transferring and now I can't find it on my Ipod where would it be?

    The problem may have been in how you transfered it.  You didn't go into much detail.  Just be sure to follow the steps in the tutorial below.  Note Paragraph 5.
    Many libraries worldwide now use Overdrive Media Console, which comes in Mac an Windows versions http://www.overdrive.com/Software/omc .  Some find the mobile device transfer process confusing.  To load or delete a WMA or MP3 (Macs can only download MP3 books) audiobook onto an Apple mobile device see the "How to Transfer to a Portable Device" video in the guides at Step 7, then do the following.
    1. For Windows versions, you must first do a security update of Windows Media Player (even though you won't be using it) using Internet Explorer at http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/indivsite .
    2.  Open iTunes, plug the mobile device into the computer USB port and open the Overdrive Media Console.
    3. Highlight the mobile device in the left hand menu of iTunes and insure the "Manually manage music and videos" box is checked in the Summary Tab. If the mobile device storage is full, transfering will delete that portion of music necessary for the ebook.
    4. Highlight the book you want to transfer in the Overdrive Media Console and click the Transfer Button.   A window opens permitting you to click the boxes for parts of the book you wish to transfer.
    5. After the book has been transfered, when you click the disclosure triangle (arrow) to the left of the iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes, MP3 books will show up under the Music subsection and WMA books will show up in the Books subsection.  Once the mobile device is disconnected from iTunes, MP3 books will show up in the Songs list of the mobile device and WMA books will show up in the Books list.
    6. To remove a book from a mobile device plug the device into the USB port and open iTunes. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes so that you can see the device’s subcontents. For an MP3 book select the Music subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete.  For a WMA book, select the Book subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete.
    7. The Overdrive Media Console Guided Tour (videos) is at http://www.overdrive.com/Solutions/Libraries/tour/MenuWelcome.html .  The "Portable Devices" and "How to Transfer to a Portable Device" videos are there.
    8. To find a nearby library for ebooks search http://search.overdrive.com .  You can download the software, search for books and see tutorials without an account at the website of any library that uses Overdrive, however, you need a library card to download books.  At this library site, for example, the software and guided tour are at the bottom of the left hand menu.
