Audio Books
This program is useless when it comes to audio books. I have been attempting to rip books to it for over a year with no success. It always seems to lose a track on every CD. If the **** program hadn't automatically imported every MP3 on my computer it would be easier to track the lost track. I have the music organized where I can find it in Media player. The lack of organization ability in iTunes makes it hard to find a track from a book. Then getting all the cds to fall in one place. I give up. It appears this is designed for music only and if I want to listen to music will use the system at home a turntable or CD player. This has turned into wasted money as the software won't do what I bought the player to do.
Just sort your library by date added.
The last thing you added would be first on the list.

I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto. 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

Leetry a new/fresh apple brand cable and make sure it is the only usb cable in use. this worked for me, i noticed i had no problem with a lighting cable. i did a restore from scratch and from backup and it did not help me...and if you cant sync than you wont be able to get anything but apps back after the restore

I can not find my audio books on my iPhone.
I have tried to sync my 3 recently purchased audio books with my iPhone with out success. The files work fine on my MacBook, but I can not see them on my iPhone. There is no field for Audio Books in “More” on the phone. I can see a new graph of data labeled “Documents and Data” at the bottom of the screen in iTunes on the MacBook next to the Sync button. I presume this to be the files I am looking for, since I appeared immediately after my last sync. Still I am unable to find or listen to the files on my phone.
In an attempt to correct this problem I just reset my phone. All works well still no audio books.
Also I have noticed I am also having trouble syncing newly acquired music to the same iPhone.
iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.4
MacBook Pro 13-inch, OS X10.9
Any suggestions?If you have them on your computer's iTunes then you can re-sync them to your device (are they in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library ?) - that has not changed, only the layout of iTunes has changed with the left-hand sidebar not automatically showing, though you can enable it (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC)
If you don't have a copy of them on your computer nor on a backup then you will need to contact iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download - as far as I know it's never been possible to re-download aubiobooks from the store without contacting iTunes support. -
I lost connection with the server while downloading an audio book how do I restart the download without paying again?
Go into the App Store, tap Updates, and at the top should appear Purchases. Hit the tab that says "Not on this iPhone" to download again

IPhone 5 works fine with incoming calls and audio books but no one can hear me talk.
I have an add-on blue tooth system in my older Prius and it worked perfectly for a couple of years. I can still receive phone calls and listen to audio books through my radio speakers but all of a sudden my callers could no longer hear my voice so I have to switch the phone audio source to iPhone so they can hear me. This happened when I had the iPhone 4 and has continued with the iPhone 5. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Hi, Did you test to see if after 2 or 3 mins the phone started working correctly? mine does then it will work for a day or 2 on every call then I have to do the same thing again.

HT201269 I can't download my purchased Audio books to my iPhone 5S. Why not?
I upgraded to the iPhone 5S from 3G and after uploading files, apps and photos I noticed that not all my songs were uploaded and neither were any of my audio books. I clicked on the iTunes app and clicked on the MORE icon where the number 214 is in red. When I click, it shows 214 downloads, none are my audio books. WHen I click on song title it acts like its going to begin download and then I get error message: Unable to Dowload Song - could not be downloaded at this time. I hit the retry button and get the same error message. I cannot find and evidence at all on my iPhone that I have any Audio books that I have purchased through iTunes, and they show records of it. I can't get them to download if there is no reference point.
I have just had the same issue as "wagtribe".
I purchased a audio book for an 83-year-old relative that I'm nursing who is loosing her eyesight and bodily functions in what is now expected to be the last week of her life.
I made the purchase on my 6-Plus synced to one iMac and fully expected it to be available to my iPad mini synced on my second iMac which are all synced to the same iTunes account so that I could leave it in the room with Auntie. Guess what, audio books are not transferable and Apple slugged me twice for the same book just so the old dear could have an audio book from Apple. Apple, I understand you have legal issues with publishers, but as we Australian's would say "Fair go Mate!" Apple can do better, as amply demonstrated with other iTunes file types.

HT201272 How do I download audio books that are not on my purchased list? That I have purchased.
I have purchased a few audio books on iTunes and in the process of upgrading the audio is no longer on my iCloud account. How do I get these books back? The books are in my purchase history. But iTunes would make me pay for them again if I get it from there.
Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download, so they won't appear in the cloud for re-downloading. Have you not got a copy of them on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you can try contacting Apple, but they are under no obligation to let you re-download them : http://www.apple.com/uk/support/itunes/contact/

My audio books that were bought through Itunes on my Iphone do not show up on my Itunes account.
I bought audio books on my iphone, but they do not show up on my itunes account on my computer. The books I purchased through the computer show up on my itunes account. My phone is at it's max and I need to remove these books, but do not want to lose them. Thank you for your assistance.
This isn't completely coherent so I am not sure what is wrong other than some (al?) of your tracks have broken links.
If you are browsing through iTunes you are not looking at files you are looking at data entries that point to files, with those locations being incorrect right now.
There isn't a file called iTunes media, there is a folder that should be in your iTunes folder called that.
You mention something about external drives. I presume one is for your Time Machine backup but is the other one used for iTunes? If so, what do you keep there?
Here's some background information to help place this in context:

Hi
I have purchased an audio book from iTunes with my iMac.
Now I wanted to listen to it on my iPhone so I proceeded to transfer the purchase and looked for the book in the purchased section of the store in the iTunes on my iPhone but it did not show up.
Does anyone know why and how I can transfer the audio book purchased on my iPhone so I can listen while away from the desk?
Thank you,
SanyaCan you find the audio book by using the Search feature on the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the audio book to the iPod?

Note you have to check the boxes in Books pane for the iPod in iTunes to sync books in general and another box to sync Audio Books. -
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.

I have audio books that are on my ipod touch, but when I hook it up to my computer to make changes they don't show up. I can't add new music, because it keeps telling me I am out of room. When I go to the book tab at the top it doesn't show any so I can't take them off. How do I get them to show up?
iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
Authorizing a computer does not cause media to magically appear.
Media is only where the user puts it.
Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer. -
I have the current version of itunes on my pc and my wife had downloaded a few audio books to her i phone under the same account. Her phone was damaged and was replaced. I had backed up the phone and restored the new one but her audio books were not put on the new phone. When i look in my itunes library on my pc the book does not show up. In the purchase history I can find when i purchased it and the order number but there is no option to download it. Then under the "purchased" area it gives the options of music movies tv shows apps and books (not audio books) but audio books are no where to be found. If i can get any help figuring it out i would appreciate it.
Hey innerev2003,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If, while searching through your past purchases, items are unavailable to download and show a "Purchased" button, they are still on your computer. It may be best to search your iTunes library by clicking Music, then use the search bar at the top right.
If you are completely sure the items are no longer in your library, try signing out of the iTunes Store, and then back in.
