Audio book downloaded to iPod Nano but no where does it show up on iTunes on

Have been doing this for 3 years with no problem now when I download an audio book to my iPod Nano it does show up and plays on it, but when I go to iTunes on my desktop its just not there.. not under any category.  I want to delete the book & can't find it.  Thank you.

  • HT1848 how do i delete audio books from my iPod nano 5th generation

    How do I delete audio books from my iPod Nano 5th generation. Have deleted from iTunes library & chose sync but it is still on my iPod.

    What you do is this; the next time your ipod is jacked to the USB port on you computer and it shows under "Devices" in your Itunes library. click on that folder (your ipod) and it will have eight folders above the Ipod's state.
    That was step one; step two is once you see this bar above the ipod's state in the Ipod's folder under "devices" scroll down the horizontal bar until you see audiobooks
    Itune's is very user friendly and will give you the option to pick and choose or pick all. to get the audio books off your ipod pick and choose the audio books you want on you're ipod

  • Ipod nano 2nd gen wont charge, or show up on itunes or the pc itself

    hey my ipod nano 4gb when plugged in wont show up on my pc or in itunes. it doesnt even charge. i've tried restarting the computer and reinstalling itunes. other ipods work on it fine. ive tried it on other computers and it doesnt work either. i have a set of speakers and it charges and plays through them without any problems.
    PLEASE HELP!

    I had the exact same problem!!!! As far as I know their no good solution exept what I did....
    1. go back to the store
    2. Explain the problem
    3. Get them to take the iPod back and get another mp3 player that roughly costs the same. (I swapped my iPod for a creative zen-v...)
    Good luck getting it to work or good luck in the store!!!

  • Audio book download and ipod shuffle

    I am having difficulty getting the audio book I purchased from itunes, to load onto my shuffle. I see it in the playlist, but can't sync it to my ipod, it just disappears. Advice?

    Audiobooks (and podcasts) need to be dragged-and-dropped onto the shuffle in iTunes...

  • IPod Nano 3rd gen 8GB does not show music library, can't restore in osx.3.9

    I have two problems: Although, I can see mu iPod's music library when I plug in it into my ancient laptop (iBook G4 10.3.9), the library doesn't display on the iPod once it's disconnected, meaning I can't play any songs on the iPod proper). I've done everything that the Apple website recommends for troubleshooting my Nani 3rd generation, including attempting to reset it repeatedly. I've now saved the songs elsewhere, and I'm prepared to restore it, but I can't seem to find a way to reset it in iTunes 4 (apparently the latest version of iTunes that will work on this computer). Am I missing something? What should I do? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Best,
    Diane

    Hey there,
    If your iPod is a 3rd generation nano, it will not work with anything below 10.4 as outlined in this Apple support document. That could be the underlying problem. Hope this helped.

  • I have an ipod nano but i dontknow how can syc the audio books on it?!

    how can i use audio books in my ipod nano?!
    i have a windows7 pc

    Configure the audiobooks to sync to your iPod from under the iPod's Books configuration tab in iTunes.
    To access this configuration tab, plug in your iPod and select it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab.  Now locate the Books tab and select it.  Here you can configure what and how audiobooks are synced to the device.
    If you make any changes to this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button on in the lower right hand corner.

  • My local library uses a program called Overdrive Media Console to check out audiobooks.  MP3 type books go to music on my iPod Nano, but I am unable to delete them because I tunes doesn't display them as content. What should I do? I need the space.

    According to my library, I can download MP3 audio books to my Ipod Nano.  The material is "checked out" to a program called Over Drive Media Console. and from there, it is transferred to my IPod.  the audio doesnt go to Audi Books, it goes to Music.  I want to delete some of the books I have listened to, but when I plug in the Ipod and open ITunes, the titles are not there.  The manual says to connect to itunes, and delete a "song or other material" but since I  did not use ITunes to get the
    "song" to begin with, it isnt recognized.  How can I get these audioboks off my IPOD?  I am running out of space.  I tried connecting to Overdrive, but the software doesnt recognize the internal content.  It only sets it up for transfer.

    The audio books do not display under the music sub-menu
    And they shouldn't.  They should be under the Books submenu that is further down the list from the Music submenu you are referring to.

  • Can't find my audio book -- Downloaded it from my public library to iTunes via Overdrive. It transferred to my old nano just fine but, even though it seemed to transfer to my new iPhone, I'm not able to locate it for playback.

    Thank you. That solved the problem. So simple but it wasn't intuitive to me.

  • HT204081 I have downloaded/purchased an audio book to my ipod & it is in German. Is it possible to convert it to English?

    I have downloaded/purchased an audio book to my ipod & it is in German. Is it possible to convert it to English?

    You can't convert it yourself. What does the audiobook's description page in the store say. does it say that it's in English in German ? You can try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : 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

  • I just purchased an iPad trying to get audio book downloaded. I downloaded 2 different apps and 2 books that said they were audio but nothing works. So frustrations.

    I just purchased an iPad trying to get audio book downloaded. I downloaded 2 different apps and 2 books that said they were audio but nothing works. So frustrations. Can anyone help me? Leaving on a trip Friday would really like to have it  :)

    You can purchase Audio books in the iTunes Store App and they will be downloaded for playing in the Music App.
    What two Apps are you talking about?

  • Audio Books Not Resuming / Ipod locks if exit Music after 2.2.1 Upgrade

    Hello,
    I have a 1G 16GB Ipod Touch, and have been running 1.1.4 for the past year until about a week ago when I took the plunge and upgraded to 2.2.1. I thought all went well, but have been experiencing multiple problems as my use of the Ipod expands.
    I subscribe to Audible and listen to long audio books on my drive to work. In 1.1.4 I was able to pause the books, go off and do other things, and come back to resume where I left off. This feature no longer works correctly for me after the 2.2.1 upgrade.
    After pausing an audio book, I am able to resume playback where I left off if I stay within the Music application (even playing other songs or books). However, if I exit the Music application back to the Main Menu, the Ipod locks for about 30 seconds before I can start another app, lock, or go back into music. If music is playing when I go back to the Main Menu, it will continue during this time the Ipod is locked and then stop. If no music is playing, the Ipod still locks, so it doesn't matter if music is playing or not.
    After the Ipod becomes responsive again, I can go back into Music, but I find that all my audio books have reverted back to the bookmarks that existed a week ago when I did the upgrade. For example, I was on Chapter 6 of a book when I did the upgrade, listened up to Chapter 10 and paused. I exited the Music, came back in, and it reverted to the exact second in Chapter 6 where the bookmark was placed before the upgrade. I have tried multiple experiments with this, and it's always the same result. I upgraded to 2.2.1 to use Apps, so it stinks that I can't leave Music...ever.
    Is there anything that I can do to fix this issue or am I going to be forced to downgrade back to 1.1.4?
    Thank you very much!

    Well, I managed to fix the problem thru sheer brute force so I figured I would at least pass along what I did in case someone else has this issue. Evidently, doing an in-place upgrade does not work so as a last resort I used "Restore", cleared the Ipod, reloaded everything back on and the playback positions are now working again in music and video. Something screwy must have happened during the upgrade and just needed to start over. Still trying to reload everything (they REALLY need a mass backup feature for photos/music/videos) but looks like it will work.

  • Audio book downloading problem

    When I attempt to download an audio book, itunes downloads forever with no progress. It works fine with music, just the books. I can't seem to figure out why. It was fine, I have downloaded several audio books previously, and music since, but now have two books waiting that will not download. Any suggestions?

    Temporarily disable your firewall and ALL of your antivirus/antispyware software then try again.

  • Audio Books Unorganized on iPod

    In the past I've been able to have several audio books on my iPod and have them be organized by book then by chapter but today when I added a second audio book it's organized by chapter first mixing the two books. I was wondering if iTunes version 10 changed something?
    Thanks
