Can not transfer WMA audio books to new iPhone 4S

I got a new 4S and went to sync it in iTunes and got a message saying I had to load the latest version of iTunes and went ahead and did it and it worked fine.  No issues and all synced and got all of my apps music and pictures!!  Then i went to transfer a WMA audio book using OverDrive Media and all functioned same as with my 3G phone except I can not find the books on my iPhone.  They are not in the iPod app now called Music.  Also not in the books app or in OverDrive.  Even asked Siri to find the book and she could not
Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi
Sorry to disagree whist Audible might have recorded the books Apple puts it's own protection on the Audible files they sell in their iTunes Store unless they changed that policy quite recently.
They are dearer from iTunes at least in Australia, I will go out on a limb and say they are also in the US store
  As an example I picked the fist 2 best sellers off of iTunes Australian Audio Book Store as an example,
I can only assume that either you are not an Audible Member and thus not seeing the Audible member price.

Sorry if i misunderstood, but when you started talking about Audible files I assumed ( obviously incorrectly) that they were Audible files purchased from Audible. 
Audible existed before Apple had an Audio store and Audible has it's own format. In order to use Audible files purchased from Audible you need to Authorize iTunes to do so, under the advanced menu under Authorize Audible Account.
Your 4S i Assume has IOS 5 so i assumed it was the same issue i was having with my iPad 2 once i installed IOS 5. . . everything was working fine until i did
I will delete my reply if Apple will let me, because my answer has obviously upset you
I apologize for any inconvenience my post caused, i was only trying to help

  • 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.

    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.

  • Swapped my iPad  to new air.   Can not get iTunes audio books I bought  tried not on this iPad but no luck

    Swapped my iPad to new air iPad.  Now can't find audio books I bought from iTunes.  Tried not on this iPad no luck

    I've been having this problem too, but here's the catch: originally it was only with my dad, and only sometimes.  Now it's dad and husband, every time!  Pix go through, via imessage, to everyone else, and they go through to dad/husband if I "send as text" after it fails. 
    And the other annoying thing- the blue bar will run all the way, and it will say "delivered".  So I close out of imessage. When I reopen it again, the "delivered" has changed to "not delivered" with the red exclamation point.  I just googled "imessage not sending photos" and founds TONS of people with the same problem, but no solutions.  (I have rebooted phone, reset network settings, with no luck.  I even had to backup/delete/restore my whole phone the other day for a different reason, and hoped that would fix it, but now it won't send to my dad OR my husband (who is on not just the same carrier, but the same family plan as me)

  • I have a Zune. Can I transfer my audio books, music, and pics to a iPod?  How?

    I have a Zune.  I want to buy an iPod.  Can I transfer all my audio books, music, and pictures onto the iPod and if so how?

    For the music and audio books it depends upon where they came from.  If they have DRM protection and the DRM is not compatible with the iPod/iTunes then you are out of luck.  Audible.com audio are compatible with iTunes/iPod and you just add them to the Books library of iTunes.  Music, if compatible, is just added to the iTunes Music library.  Phots will sync just fine to the iPod.  See:

  • How can I transfer mp3 audio books to SE c510 via (Media Go)?

    First of all, I converted the audio book .mp3 file to .m4b, then went to Media Go and transferred the converted file with that program. Then, I unplugged the phone from my PC and went to Media---Music---Audio Books in my c510, but there was no audio book added. Also tried to turn the audio book on via "File Manager", and I noticed that the Media Go program had converted the file to .aac , so I when I had tried to play the file, got a message "Playback failed".
    Can anyone tell me where I do wrong , how to transfer that kind of files to my mobile properly?! Thanks in advance!

    I was researching the software and I see that you only have two audio file type options: mp3 and AAC.
    If you want to transfer m4b, then you will need to just to it using My Computer, selecting the Phone Card (which has its own drive letter) and then put them in the Audio books folder.
    You can change the default file type that MediaGo transfers from AAC to mp3 (if the original file type is fine with you) by selecting Tools > Preferences > Devices > highlight the device and select Properties and then in Media Format you have the option to change the type of file that will be transferred.

  • How can I transfer Sidekick contacts to the new iPhone??

    Just wondering how I could get my SideKick LX contacts either onto my new iPhone or onto the computer???
    Thanks!

    Does the SideKick support storing contact information on the SIM card?
    If you are an existing at&t subscriber with your SideKick.
    AT&T Devices (with AT&T SIM)
    1. Install SIM card from previous device into iPhone 3G and select Settings >>>
    Mail/Calendar/Contacts >>> Import SIM Contacts >>> SIM Import.
    2. If you will not be using your old SIM card in iPhone 3G (e.g. your old SIM card was
    2G and had to be replaced) remove the old SIM card and re-install the new active AT&T 3G SIM card.
    Note: When transferring contacts from SIM card to iPhone 3G, only the first number
    listed for each contact will be transferred to the new device. If any secondary numbers
    are listed under a contact they will not be transferred.

  • HT4994 How can i transfer texts from sim to new iphone 4s?

    Hi,
    I've just got a new iPhone 4s.When I ordered it with O2 the sales lady told me i could keep all my texts from old samsung phone by transferring them onto the new sim and then from that onto the phone. I've got as far as putting the new sim in the phone but can't find how to get the texts from the sim onto the new phone.
    Can anyone help please?
    Many thanks.

    I don' t want them to get away with crap selling and now even more appalling customer service. And i don't want to lose my texts which are now on a microsim that won't tranfer to the iphone. I just want someone to say-yes we cocked and now we're going to fix this ( different phone, money off etc) but they are telling me there's nothing i can do except drive a 50mile round trip to one of their shops (but they won't pay for petrol). I'am about to explode!!!!

  • Why can I not put an audio book on my iPhone 4S?

    I downloaded an audiobook, but when I sync my phone it will not give me the option to add it to my phone. It doesn't show up at all even after I created it's on playlist. The playlist doesn't show up either.

    Where did you download it from? What format is it in?

  • How Can I Transfer My Data to my new iPhone?

    Currently, I have an iPhone 4, and will most likely get the new one when it comes out in the fall. If I sold my 4 before buying the new one, how would I transfer my contacts, pictures, etc. onto the new one? Do I just keep my old SIM Card and put it in the new one?

    iPhones don't store any data on SIM cards. 
    You need to backup your current phone either to iCloud or iTunes, and sync your contacts with either an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) 
    When you get your new phone (Thanks for not calling it the "iPhone 5"), you'll restore that backup and sync as part of the activation process.
