Audiobook won't play from iPod
I just downloaded an audiobook (2 files). Both files will play when I launch them from iTunes. I can see the audiobook files on my iPod (music - audiobooks), but when I play them, the file looks like it starts to play but then closes after a second and takes me back to the audiobooks menu. If I attempt to play it a second or subsequent time it takes me back to the menu even quicker.
I created a new playlist and copied the files, but I get the same results. Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks.

I am having the same problem.. and it seems that from looking through all the different forums.. lots of other people are having the same issues.. yes.. i did everything on that page.. the 5 "r"s.. etc.. and my files are already have the .mb4 extensions.. The play in Itunes just fine.. show up in my IPOD audiobooks section (which is now in the music section for some reason).. but they don't play on the IPOD.. .. I posted this issue about 2 weeks ago and no one seems to have a solution.. and it seems that Apple doesn't really care.. Up until this book I was download 1-2 books a month.. but no more.. I will just switch back to CDs.. until Apple can solve this issues.. The book in question was "Simple Genius"

Ipod not in dropdown list and itunes won't play from ipod after 8.1download
ever since I downloaded 8.1 itunes my ipod no longer appears in the dropdown list (right click on song or podcast - add to playlst) when i want to transfer a song or podcast to my ipod. My only option is to drag and drop now. Also I cannot play on my computer a song or podcast that is on my ipod,(I do this to sync my ipod to where it last played) it's as though it is not recognizing it even though my ipod icon does appear in itunes. I use a 1GB shuffle.
i knew the solution was in front of my face! thank you so much pointing it out for me : )

AudioBooks won't transfer from ipod to itunes on computer.
I bought a new iTouch and want to transfer my purchases from my old iTouch onto the iTunes account on my computer. I have backed up the old iTouch and everything but the Audio Books have transfered to the computer and to the new iTouch. I figured I could download them by going through the iTunes store>purchased>all books, but nothing is there. I can find the proof of purchase for these Audio Books by going through iTunes store>Account>Purchase history. Why can't I find them and transfer them from one iTouch to another? (The old iTouch is a fourth generation, the new iTouch is the fifth.)
I need some help, because my daughter is going to be taking my old iTouch so I want to factory reset it, yet I don't want to lose my books.Is the computer authorized for the account that poruchased them?

Try the standard fixes:

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod. -
Album uploaded to Itunes match, plays on computer but won't play on ipod, no cloud symbol next to songs. Press play on 1 track and it skips through the album without playing. I've tried deleting the album from PC and downloading again from match and even after syncing the album won't play on the ipod
iPod touch, iOS 6.1I've just connected the ipod to my computer and checked the music on the iPod. The album that I am having trouble with shows an exclamation symbol next to it. I've tried deleting the album from iTunes and re downloading it then syncing but it doesn't appear to affect the information shown the iPod. The album neither deletes nor updates.

I record my band rehearsals using the voice memo on my iPhone 5s. Then I sync to iTunes and convert file to mp3. When i sync back to my iPhone it appears in my music. So far, so good. When I use the search function in music it finds the file but won't play from tapping. I must troll through all my music songs (currently 2227 of them) to find it and then play it. Is it something to do with it still being under the genre "voice memos" or what ? Anybody help please. Thanks
iWeb is an application to create webpages with.
It used to be part of the iLife suite of applications.
iWeb has no knowledge of the internal speaker on your iPhone.
You may want to ask in the right forum. -

Music does not sync properly when updated to latest version. Can see on computer but can't play from ipod.
Hope this helps...
I was having the same problem where only 1.7GB of 10GB of selected music would sync so I decided to start fresh. The following steps worked for me:
1. Open itunes and connect iphone 5 if not already. Uncheck all playlists, artists, etc. till nothing is checked to sync. Then uncheck the sync music box so that all music will be removed from the phone. Sync iphone
2. Eject device. Quit itunes (don't just close). unplug iphone.
3. Restart imac, macbook, or PC.
4. Restart iphone.
5. Now after power up, restart itunes then plug in iphone, check sync music and select music to sync. Sync iphone
6. It worked for me!!! Good luck. -
Ipod alarm won't play from playlists
So, I just recieved a brand new ipod from apple because my battery was not holding a charge. I cannot get the alarm to play from a playlist. The only option under sound is beep and that would never get me up. Any thoughts?
I know this is a silly question, but do you have a playlist on your iPod that you can select?
Otherwise the only option is the 'beep'. -
Video podcasts won't play, cause ipod to freeze
Hi there,
My 5.5g ipod won't play video podcasts. I've downloaded several different ones, made sure the "TV Out" is turned off, and played with several other settings, all to no avail. When I open one from the video>video podcasts menu, the screen goes black, sometimes it says "Loading" with the little "play" arrow in the top left corner, and that's all I get. It freezes, and I have to reset.
I've also tried restoring the ipod to factory conditions, which didn't work. The podcasts play in iTunes, so that's not the problem.
This thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8969818�
also seems to describe my problem, but I can't find a solution there.
Anybody have any ideas for how to fix this? Thanks!It's up to the producers of the podcast whether they make their video podcasts iPod compatible or not. It's certainly not a requirement for an iTunes Podcast feed which is, perhaps, unfortunate. You could try sending the producer feedback but even if they take any notice it won't affect podcasts you've already downloaded. The *Make iPod compatible version* rarely works (somthing to do with whether audio & video are separate or multiplexed to start with). I suggest you download SUPER which is capable of converting almost anything to an iPod version. You have to navigate through a bunch of links before you get to the actual download, but it is there - just ignore the links to other commercial software on the way, SUPER is free.

PS. On my current setup SUPER generates the odd error message while running but still produces a working output file...

New iTunes album won't play on iPod
I just bought a new album from iTunes (The Decemberists "Long Live the King" EP), and it won't play on my iPod. It shows up there, and it plays in iTunes on my computer, but my iPod won't play any of the songs. Help?
Fixed. Deauthorized and reauthorized my computer, plus fiddled with where the files were stored. Something worked. Whew.

Purchased songs and videos won't play on iPod
new 5th gen iPod shows songs and videos purchased from itunes onto computer and synched into ipod library, but won't play them. songs loaded from cd play fine on ipod.
Usually when this happes, the software on the ipod os not up to date.
whe nyou connect the ipod to the computer and the ipod shows in itunes under devices, click the update or restore button to the right in the summary screen so itunes can check online to see if there is an updated version of the ipod software online.
If you update first and that does not work, try the restore.
