Audible books syncing

Hi All,
Can someone tell me why all of my Audible books Sync EVERY TIME I sync my 3G phone? I hate to add ANY more time to the back-up sync process!
Thanks for the help.
Blessings,
--Mark

This is how I manage my books from Audible.com.
I created a playlist called Current Audible. I move any books I want on my iphone to that playlist. In the Music tab of the iphone sync in itunes, I select the Current Audible playlist and don't select the regular Audible playlist.
Since the books stay in Audible when I copy to Current Audible, I can just delete them from Current Audible when I don't want them on my iphone any more.
Of course, you still have the problem that the sync backs up everything and resyncs everything, but at least it's only those things you currently want on your iphone. I have the old 8G so I can only have a couple books on it anyway.

  • Audible books sync

    When syncing to my iphone if I do not start playing an Audible book and complete the Autentication screen (Audible ID and password), the Audible books are erased from my iphone during the sync. Is there a way around this?

    The fix was frustratingly simple for me.
    Select the book and select 'Get Info' from the 'File' menu at the top of the screen, then enter the book title in the 'Album Name' field.

  • My I-Pod Touch contains an audible book, which I can not remove.  It does not appear in I-Tunes, and this takes up so much memory that I can't sync my i-Pod.

  • Unable to sync selected list of audible books to either my iphone or ipad

    I've selected a list of 7 of my 20+ audible books to my iphone and ipad but itunes will only sync 4 even though I have lots of disc space available. I'tried changing the books on the list and have restart the devices and Itunes with no success. Any suggestions as to why.

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your current password. Turn it off on both of your devices, then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was.  You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so.  You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • Audible books won't sync

    Audiobooks won't sync. The Audiobooks playlist is checked on the ipad sync screen. The audiobooks playlist on itunes shows multiple audible books but the ipad says no audiobooks.
    I've synced, checked, unchecked, rechecked, multiple times.

    I'm so glad someone figured this out. It was driving me crazy. I ended up having to manually manage music and drag all my books on to the device. Initially, I tried creating an audiobook playlist of my own, and that wouldn't even show up when i tried to sync the device. Very strange.
    As an unrelated note, I'm (surprisingly) loving typing on this thing. It's much more error free than i ever thought it would be.

  • Audible Books not showing in playlist

    I have my Audible books synched up in my iPad. When I go to the iPod application and select "Audiobooks" it shows a book icon that says "Audible (5 Books)" but when I click on this icon the list appears empty.
    The only way I can play the books is going through the iPad search and typing a part of the title. I am then able to play it, although it still will not show in the library. I can not use the search function within the library, it has to be the main iPad search.
    Most of my books are using the "Enhanced" format (it is compatible since I can play them). I am also selecting specific books from the "Books" tab in iTunes. I tried choosing the option to sync all books and the only change is that the folder will show a higher number.
    Any ideas on how to get the titles to show in the list.

  • Why can't I access my Audible books on iPhone5?

    I bought a new iPhone 5, synced to my Mac but unable to access my Audible books ... any ideas?

    Play the Auduble file in iTunes to be prompted to autorize your Adible accuont with the new iTunes Library. If it is already authorized try selecting "De-authorize Audible account" in the iTunes Advanced menu first then play a book to re-authorize it.

  • HT4108 Getting sonos wifi speaker to play audible books

    How to do this when the audible books were bought  using the iPad via iTunes.?

    It's 03/18/2014 as I write this. Don't buy the Sonos if you're an audio book lover. I couldn't get their system to sync with my Audible account. Another user in our household couldn't get the Sonos app to read audio books she bought from iTunes - all 100% legit, purchased items.
    I returned my Sonos pain in the *** device and bought a Definitive Technologies Bluetooth-based Cube. I plugged it in and within 2 minutes I was playing every single thing I wanted directly from my phone. Awesome sound quality - every bit as good or better than Sonos. If it was on my phone I could play it - easily - no hassle. http://www.amazon.com/Definitive-Technology-Wireless-Bluetooth-Speaker/dp/B00GP3 XXBO

  • Problem resuming Audible books

    Under warrantly, my original 4GB Nano died with click wheel problems. I easily had it swapped out at near Apple store for another 4GB unit (likely refurb). My problem never occured before, but 90%+ since. When I power Nano back on after a longer time off (day or so), my Audible books resume from where I stopped BUT with the super high speed voice (chipmunk-ish). It's not the reading speed has changed as I've checked. The only way to correct is menu back to top, play some music and then back down to Audible content. No known problems with music. Have always used Audible format version 3. Don't want to go with iTune 7 until their Audible bugs are fixed. Any ideas? Go back to Apple store? Version 1.2 on Nano.

    I download from Audible as well, and I haven't come
    across anything like this yet. I did want to note
    that I've always downloaded from Audible in their "4
    format" (which, they tell me, is the optimal format
    for my 4th Gen iPod). I don't use a nano, so I'm not
    sure what, if any, the differences are.
    What I have noticed, is that sometimes when I try to
    resume an audible file, it opens it as though it's
    already played through to the end, and then it throws
    me back to my main menu.
    You may want to start with restoring the iPod, as
    this could be a software/firmware issue with the
    device.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    What I ended up having to do to fix my issue was go
    back to Audible.com and click on "my library" and
    download the file a second time. I then reimported
    the new file to iTunes in place of the older one,
    synced the iPod, and it worked OK after that.
    Just thought I'd throw some ideas in.
    Best of luck to you all
    CG
    Thanks for the reply. I too download in Format4. I noticed the download software seems to be device specific. I have 2 iPods and havent experienced a prob w. my 30gig iPodPhoto. only having an issue w. the 2gig Nano Gen1. So i just downloaded the right software for my iPod and also am using the software which automatically puts the downloads into iTunes..if this remedy fixes the prob, i will post again here

  • Audible Books on iTunes Lose Bookmarks

    A few times a week, my current reading location in my current Audible book is lost. Forgets which book file (eg 1 or 2), chapter, and location in chapter. I have to search manually to figure our where I was to start listening again.
    Audible calls this a 'known bug' and then suggests setting sync to manual and disabling genius. Since I use auto sync for many podcasts and listen to genius mixes, these are unacceptable.
    Anyone have experience in what might actually be causing this?

    I have the same problem. If I authorise and sync straight away it works fine, but next time I start iTunes it will not sync unless I re-authorise first.

  • Audible books are sounding tinny on my Iphone 4s.  Is there anything that I can do.

    I play Audible books all the time and all of the sudden they started sounding tinny when I played them.  My music sounds fine.  Does anyone  know what to do about this?

    What photos?
    Photos that you synced from your computer to iphone should still be on your computer.
    Camera Roll photos ( taken with iphone)?  You should be importing these regularly to your computer as you would from any digital camera.  If for some reason you have failed to do this, then you would have to be able to restore from a previous backup where the pics were present ( if on exists).  Otherwise they are gone.  Import regularly.

  • Audible Books

    Palm Pre is not listed as a Device on Audible Web Site.  Has anyone figured out how to play Audible books on the Pre?
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    I installed Classic by MotionApps on my Pre (free from the app catalog) and using The Missing Sync software from MarkSpace, which is the software I use to sync my Mac and Pre, I now have my audible books working on my Pre. Here are the websites, and instructions from MarkSpace, below.
    http://www.motionapps.com/classic/overview/
    http://www.markspace.com/
    Instructions
    Use The Missing Sync to get classic Palm apps onto your Pre.A wonderful app from MotionApps lets Palm Pre users run Palm OS applications on their phone. It's called "Classic". This is great news for Palm Pre owners who used to use a Palm OS device, like a Treo smartphone or Tungsten handheld. They can continue to use many of their favorite Palm OS apps, like SplashID, HanDBase and iSilo, and even games like Bejeweled 2 and Warfare Incorporated.*
    The Missing Sync for Palm Pre can help easily install Palm OS applications on a Pre phone from a PC or Mac.
    Follow these easy steps:
    1. Create a folder on your computer named, "Palm OS Apps" and place your application PRC and PDB files in this folder.
    2. Connect your Pre to your computer with the USB cable and mount it as a USB Drive.
    3. Launch The Missing Sync for Palm Pre and open the Folder Sync settings by double-clicking Folder Sync in the Plugins list.
    4. Add the new folder you created in step 1 as a folder to be synchronized.
    5. Next, change the Device Folder by double-clicking the device folder path in the Device Folder column. Set the destination to "/ClassicApps/Install".
    6. Close the settings window and you're all set!
    The next time you sync with The Missing Sync, Folder Sync will copy your PRC and PDB files to your Pre, ready to be used in Classic! And, The Missing Sync for Palm Pre does a whole lot more.
