Audio book not play

Any audiobook frim iTunes Store will install on my iPod nano but it will not play. The Aduiobooks icon is there and the book title is there but when I select to start an icon shows up momentarily and disappears.  But the book will NOT start. 
This problem started when I had 2 audiobooks on my iPod and deleted one of them (menu delete function).
I am going to try a Reset to Factory Settings to see if that will fix the problem.

So the audiobook downloaded to the Books library category in iTunes and when you double click on it to play it nothing happens?  If so, delete the audiobook and try redownloading it.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Once we can get it to play in iTunes, we can then set it up to sync to the Shuffle.

  • Audio books not play

    Help, I downloaded an audio book to my computer and copied it to my MUVO TX FM but it will not play book. I first had it in separate file, then in music file, then in audio file. Each time I try to play it, the display shows that I am in the file but it will not play. I've also tried all possible play modes..still nothing. Any sugestions?

    SSR, I figured it out this morning. Here are the details: I downloaded an audiobook from netlibrary onto my computer. It comes in WMA format. I then copy-pasted it into a folder I created called books.
    wee, the durned thing wouldn't play. I saw somewhere, maybe on this board that media player was the path to file transfer so I figured out how to us it and viola, through the magical art of synchronization, the WMA file works even when I moved the file into the book folder.
    My next querie is this: How do I save the spot in the book so that when I turn off the devise or move balk and forth from my music files I dont loose my place?

  • Ibook sync problems also audio books wont play correctly

    I updated my ipad from 4.3 to 5.0.1 now I am unable to sync my books in one go with out the other folder showing in excess of 24gigs plus when I try to listen to an audio book ipod player will only play the first chapter then I need to select the next chapter and so on where as with 4.3 the chapters would just play one after the other I would be great ful of any help thank you.

    Just I case any ones reading this I've found out that I'm not the only one who's suffering these faults with all of the apple products i.e. iPod touch, iPhones, and the iPads are all the same with this spurious other folder in iTunes when the devices are plugged in when I contacted apple care for help with this the so called technication tried to explain it was the iOS operating system that was accounting for the other folder when asked to explain how any operating system for a tablet or any device could be in the region of and above 20gigs he just went silent and it was hard to get another word from him he even refused to allow me to speak to his boss???
    As for the audio books the only work round I have found is to use a free programme called Audacity 1.3 for windows you can also get this prog for the mac as well it allows you to stitch audio files together so in stead of having for example 3 large files for and audio book with say 5 chapters in each file you can stitch them all together as one large 15 chapter file it also allows you to adjust the meta data which is very handy.
    Depending on how many chapters you have can take some time to do this but is so well worth it when if it was not done you could have an audio book with 150 chapters of 3 mins long which would mean every 3 mins you would have to select the next chapter to play or if it was all stitched together you just select remember last position in the iTunes file info and no more worrying about selecting the next chapter and if you don't listen to the audio book right the way through you can start off right where you left it last time.
    I hope that this info has helped any one who like myself is having the same fault with their audio books not playing correctly.

  • Edge animate cc Audio does not play on mobile phones & iPod though it plays perfectly on an mac pro

    I have uploaded an edge animate cc published html with sound. The html file opens perfectly on my mac pro safari browser perfectly with audio. But when I open the same file on my iphone5 the file opens but no the audio does not play. What wrong does anybody have an answer?

    You are right. But there detail. If Online audio will be downloaded to this user interaction. Depending on your animation will all be out of sync with the audio. For the timeline will run before. I do not know how to do but needed to put a stop to that timeline only run when the audio is downloaded. I had problems in IOS and Android with audio using adobe edge previous version before they even have audio support. Used Edgehero who answered my expectations very well. Only had this same problem but it was solved this way.

  • Audio file not playing when previewed or pulised on only one slide

    I have one slide that the audio will not play unless the you click on the play button in preview or when published.  All other slide audios are working fine and will play automtically when the next button is clicked on the previous slide.  I have tried changing the name of the audio file, deleting the sled and the fiel and staring over etc.  the audio file were created in another program and then brought into Captivate but thia has not been a problem with any other production up to this point.  Any suggestions?

    Becasue the audiobook distributors do not allow Apple do offer this.

  • Keynote audio does not play in powerpoint

    I made a keynote presentation with audio, saved it as powerpoint, but the audio is not playing in powerpoint

    Exporting to .ppt seems to produce an audio file in .mov format in a separate folder. Go figure that one!
    I would think that the audio would need to be in MP3 format before a poor old WIndows machine could handle it.

  • Play position in audible audio books not syncing back from iPhone to iTunes

    Hi everybody. I hope I don't open a redundant thread, but i couldn't find one that has this topic.
    Anyway, I am syncing some audio books from audible to my iPhone. When i start playing them on the phone, the play position is in sync to the position in iTunes. Now let's say i listen one hour on the phone and then sync again.
    Contrary to what i expected, the further advanced play position from the phone is NOT synced back to iTunes but the old position from iTunes is synced again to the phone. So the next time I access the audio book on the phone I start where i started in the first place.
    Is this a bug or have I missed some setting wheresoever?
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    I have seen others complain about it. For me I never listen via PC (only phone) so I haven't had an issue yet. Though I do when I stop listening look at the time and chapter/file I am at and go over to Notes and jot it down. Due to reboots or other issues, it has lost where I was but with my notes, I can quickly get back.

  • Audio book not showing on ipad

    I can not see my audio books on my ipad without searching for them from search ipad. I have synced the ipad with my computer using wireless and cable but nothing shows up in music > more for audio books. I am using the updated 7.0.3. I synced my iphone and they show up. I origanally downloaded the books on my ipad, but I have synced with my computers itune a few times. Any help would be appreciated.

    When you use the search box are you able to then select the audiobooks and play them, and do they show in Settings > General > Usage > Music ?
    Have you tried closing the Music app via the iPad's multitasking bar and seeing if you get the Audiobooks tab at the bottom of the Music app when you re-open the app ? Double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the Music app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.

  • 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 chapters play randomly though shuffle is set to off

    I have turned off the 'shuffle' option in the Music section, but my audio book(s) still play chapters in a random mode.  From intro and chapter 1 to chapter 18 or 22.  Also the reset procedure seems not to work.  I wanted to try this to see if it would re-set the chapter issue, but I don't seem to be able to hold the wake/sleep touch and press the sound down button for 6 seconds as described in the manual.  Any ideas?

    Thank you for taking the time and trouble to reply, Santo!
    I tried your suggestion, but it didn't seem to help, but then I noticed something that I hadn't noticed before. Half of the discs were titled "Disc XXX" and the other half were titled "Disk XXX". (Notice the spelling of "Disc" vs. "Disk".) Once I made the spelling uniform, everything was fine.
    Thanks again!

  • How do I get audio books to play in proper Ch/sub-chapter sequence

    I listen to a lot of audio books and I've found the chapters, and especially sub-chapters, often do not play in the same sequence found on the CD I've purchased. Is there something I'm missing when I import them or must I continue to manually go back a number the tracks or rename the track titles to begin with numbers (e.g. 01_Chapter 1: The Premise of a Blue Sky - Preface, 02_The Premise of a Blue Sky: Night-time Blue, etc., etc.,)?
    Thank you

    The Alchemy plugin from CamelAudio is no longer available.  You can use Szforzando from Plogue.   First install szforzando.  Then start Garageband and the plugin will be available.  (If you had GarageBand open when you installed szforzando, close it and re-open.)  To open the plugin and use it on a track, follow these steps.
    1.Select the track to use
    2. Open the Smart Controls
    3. Click the Inspector button (with an "i" on it).
    4. Below "Keyboard Sensitivity," click Plugins.  You may have scroll the window to see it, or expand the window.
    5. Select Instrument/All Instruments/Plogue Art et Technologie/szforzando/stereo.  The plugin will open.
    6. Click the "File" window, which should say "empty."  A menu pops up with three options:  import, empty, reload.  Select import.
    7. Navigate in your file system to an sfz. file and open.
    8. Now the sfz sounds should play through the GarageBand controller, e.g, command-K keyboard.

While the nano is connected, I can see the new audio book under the audio book play list in the nano, but when I discionnect the nano, the audio book does not appear for me to play. My other audio books appear and play with no problem
