Help with an Audio Book

I downloaded and audio book and wanted to burn it to disc. It gives me the option to burn to multiple discs but then does nothing.
I have a pretty boring desk job and was hoping to get to listen to this while at work. How would I go about getting this on disk or breaking it down to smalle pieces so I could get it on a disk

turn match off and then sync
syncing itunes mac
first open itunes on mac computer
At top left you have an apple - itunes- file edit view ect...
go under view and show side bar
go under iTunes and check for updates (11.1.3 current) - update if needed
plug in iphone (or ipad, ipod ect..)
when the device shows up in the sidebar click on the name of device not the arrow
this opens up a summary page
across top says info, apps, music, photos, ect...
click on what you want to sync ie music
check the top box that says sync music select -entire library or selected songs and pick what you want by checking
now apply or sync at bottom
Peace, Clyde

Help with syncing audio books to my phone

I have an iPhone and I'd like to be able to sync certain audio books to it but not others. I have a ton of books and do not need all of them at one time. Is this possible?

Make a playlist for each book, then sync whichever playlist you like.

Help with WMA Audio book files not being compatible with Droid 2

I am trying to download a ebook that is in Overdrive Media Console onto my droid x2. When I try to transfer onto my droid, it says the format of this title(WMA Audiobook) is not compatible with the Motorola MB870 USB device. (MOT) Is there a 3rd party app that I can use and if so , how do you use it.

Hi Lb1964,
You should be able to find an application in the market to get eBooks on your Droid 2. I would recommend going to the market and search, using the keyword "Books." You can also follow these steps in the device itself.
Google Ebooks
Find it: > Books
To browse and select books, touch Get eBooks.Browse by category, or touch and search for a title or author. Touch a book to view more information about it. Touch Get Sample to get a free sample. To buy a book, touch the displayed price. After you confirm the purchase, the book is added to your library. Flick left and right to see more books in your library.
You are able to view the User's Manual for this device here:

I hope this information is helpful for you, Lb1964!
Have a good day!

Hi,
I need help with optical audio on my X-Fi Elite Pro, and Logitech Z-5500 speakers. I have everything connected, and sound comes out, but NO 5. Surround. This is pissing me off beyond belief. I have it all connected, and set to 5. Surround, and on my Logitech's I have it set to opical in, and have tried ALL effects, stereo, strereo 2x,[Dolby Sign] PL II Movie, [Dolby Sign] PL II Music. I have tried the sound card set for an external decoder, and the sound cards' decoder, and tried both with all optical settings on the sound card. It doesn't give me surround with optical... And I would REALLY appreciate help.
My drivers are up to date.
Thanks for the help!!!!!!!!!!!

After much trial and error, I have finally unlocked the mystery of how to remove Audiobook files from the iphone without changing the file name or type. Here are the steps:
1. Plug in your iPhone to your computer
2. Launch iTunes
3. Click on the left-hand menu option that says "books"
4. All the audiobooks (such as iTunes or Audible) will be here with cover art for each one. If you right click on these titles, you will have the option to "Uncheck Selection" or "Check Selection" depending on whether or not it is on your iPhone.
5. If you want to remove an audiobook from your iPhone, simply right click and select "Uncheck Selection"
6. Sync your iPhone
7. If you are still having problems, you have probably changed your sync options for music. Change them so that you are only syncing selected items(there are 2 different places to control these options, the "Summary" tab(which should have the "Option" "select songs and videos..." checkbox checked) and the "Music" tab(which should have the "selected playlists, artists,..." checkbox checked).
8. Magically those pesky audio books that you know and love are no longer on your iphone
9. Write Apple a nasty email and ask why $10 million in audiobook revenue hasn't warranted a software change to make this easier to understand and do.

I don't know how many contacts you have, but if it is a reasonable # maybe you can enter all of them into icloud and have them sync to your device going forward.

Need help with pagination for book

I am working on a book and need help with the pagination. I was able to make the TOC and front matter show the numbers as Roman numerals, and the body of the text as Arabic numerals, but I can't figure out how to restart the numbering sequence for the body of the text. So the front matter is numbered i-xvi, and the text is 17-681. I need the text to start with the number 1. Each subsequent chapter is a section break as well, if that makes a difference.
Many thanks,
J

Click on the page that shall start on number one. Open Inspector palette > Layout inspector (2nd tab) >

Problem with MP3 audio books - truncating

My shuffle is truncating the end of each part (track?) of my MP3 audio books. It loses the last one or two sentences. Is there something I can do to fix this?
I'm using the OverDrive Media Console to borrow books from the library. I have no problem with WMA format books (they appear as audiobooks in the shuffle listing). The MP3 books show up as "Music".
I'm manually managing music, which is required to transfer audio from OverDrive to my shuffle.
MC754LL/A iPod shuffle 2 GB
Model A1373
software version is 1.0.1

I use "My Media Mall" (http://www.mymediamall.net) to check out audio books from the library. They come in 2 formats - mp3 & WMA. When I check out a book it downloads to OverDrive Media Console. Then in OverDrive I transfer the book to my shuffle (through the manually mange the storage option). If I then start itunes, I can see what's been downloaded and what all the properties are. By default WMA books are loaded as audiobooks and there is an automatic play list created. The mp3 books are loaded, by default, into the music section.
Per your original suggestion, I converted the "music" attribute to an "audiobook" attribute, which automatically move the files and created a playlist for the book. It did not stop the truncation problem. I then converted the book back to music, and selected the "gapless album" feature. This has significantly reduced the amount of truncation so that it's gone from a couple of sentences to less than a full sentence.
If I listen to the book on my computer (windows) through itunes, there are no gaps, and no problem automatically finding the next part to play.
FYI - each audiobook is made of several parts (usually 8 - 11 for the books I listen to). Each part contains multiple chapters. Some books only break parts over a chapter break, others seem to divide the parts into semi-equal sizes. If in the shuffle I "skip to next track", it starts the next part. The voice-over feature on the shuffle announces each playlist (eg. book1, book2) and then each individual part (book1 part 01, book2 part 02, etc.). Usually when I start a book, I use the voice-over to find the playlist instead of locating a specific part. If I've been listening to the book via itunes, then I'll have to step through the playlist until the second portion where it lists the individual portions.

Need Help with Skipping Audio in Slideshows

I'm trying to burn a simple slideshow with iDVD of about 80 pictures, with an overlay .mp3 playing. I made the slideshow, and during the preview, the audio plays fine. But after I burned it, the mp3 skips slightly while the pictures change.
I initially thought the pix were too big, so I scaled them down from 400 to about 150 KB. But the second one had the same problem.
Is there anything I can do to fix this? It seems like what might be causing it is the page flip transition between pix. Is there any way I can keep the transition and get rid of the skipping? Thanks so much for the help.
I'm trying to finish this project ASAP, so thanks for the urgent response with any suggestions.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

The disk image with DVD Player worked flawlessly.
That's what to expect from a burned DVD.
This just keeps getting more weird.
Not to me now that you're providing more info.
Two items of interest:
1.) I then took the DVD to another player in my house and it worked great.
Not all players handle recordable DVDs very well. Especially if they're older than a couple of years. I've had the worst permormance from Toshiba.
2.) The DVDs are DVD-R, Memorex.
TDK and Memorex have BAD track records here.
I recommend a disk image burned to Verbatim DVD-R at 4X or slower using Toast or Disk Utility.
David Pogue also recommends Verbatim on page 356 of his latest book:
iMovie HD & iDVD 6: The Missing Manual
Quoting David: "Cheaper brands don't use the same amount of organic dyes and are more likely to suffer premature deaths."

Help with a program book ad page

Hello,
I have finished creating an ad for a program book and I cannot get it to either print right or when I did get it to do right I now have a right margin going into the crease and I have my ad going over the 1/4 margins on the bottom.
First I set up a 8.5 in by 5.5 in page size (size of program book) because I am only going to be using 1/2 of that page for my ad. I finished my design, then printed it out. My design came out landscape on the page, rather than upright portrait on the page. Obviously I think Im getting its because of the way it wants to print it. There are not many choices given in the print options for telling it to print a certain way (at least I cant find it).
Now, after messing with that a few times, I somehow finally got it to print at the top left of my paper (it actually doesnt matter if its at the top or bottom). When I fold it to 8.5 in x 5.5 in and fold the book in half I can see its not set up correct. I am not sure if its on my end or if its the printer again. The right margin runs into the spine of my paper (or crease) and the bottom of my ad has run over the middle crease. My left margin is at least 1/2" away from the left edge of my paper. I need my ad to be 1/2 the page of a 8.5in x 5.5 in page. The ad's are sold as a full page or 1/2 page.
My page set up is as a document. Its set as Page Size: Letter - 1/2 (I did not set this?), width 5.5 in and height 8.5 in, orientation is Portrait. I do have a bleed, but I dont need it and ignore it. Ive started my ad at the top Margin lines, but I made ad short of the right margin, so as to leave room near the inside crease where it would be stapled. I did not set up these margin lines and not sure how to change it. When I added my background artwork, I pulled it down till it turned PINK so that I would know where the middle of the page is. But my ad prints over this.
I am needing this ad to be at least 1/2" away from the top, left and right margin of the page and pretty close to the 1/2 page mark, but not over. Do i make sense?
Now, just a little back ground. Ive designed program books in the past using Publisher. I designed a whole program book, cover to cover and I had very little issues doing it. Now I am using InDesign for the first time to do this and struggling a bit here. The printing of stuff from ID is also driving me nuts. Im not liking the way ID prints and if I tell my Epson printer how to print, it doesnt work and continues to give me crappy outputs.
Any help would be appreciated. I need to turn this in tonight, but i cant turn in a camera ready printout if its not printing out correctly.
Thank you,
Tina

So, whatever is the easiest way for her to get this ad, so that she doesnt somehow mess it up.
You really can't control for that. If she doesn't know what she's doing, you could send her a technician with a brand new printer, and she could do it wrong. The best you can do is to communicate to her what you intend, and hope she can pull it off. I'd send a PDF set to the final size with the margins, and one without the margins. When she opens them, she will see something like this:
This is a screenshot from Acrobat showing the white document size against the black background that represents what is outside of the document. You can see the amount of white space that surrounds the image area (the placeholder type), so you know how much border you intended.
Now, your InDesign document is half-letter size (5.5x8.5). If you subtract the amount of margin you used (in my example, I used .5" on all sides), you have the size of the image area (my example has a 4.5x7.5 image area). You can make a new InDesign document the size of your image area (4.5x7.5) and place the PDF that has the margins (like in the screenshot above) onto the page and position it so that the image area lines up with the document page borders, as you can see in this screenshot:
You can see the blue InDesign image frame with the handles, which is the size of the half-letter PDF, and the image area contained within the document border, which is the black stroke that you normally see in InDesign. Don't worry about the magenta inner margin—that could be set to anything, and isn't in play here. In order to position the placed PDF into the new 4.5x7.5 InDesign document, when you place the PDF, check the Show Import Options box in the Place window. that will bring up a new screen after you select which image you are placing and you hit the OK button. The screen looks like this:
In the Options section, change the Crop to from Bounding Box (Visible Layers only) (which should be the default choice) to Art, and you will see the dotted line that represents the size of the image change to include the margins.
Now, when you place the image, just set the position proxy (which looks like this: ) to the top left corner and in the X and Y fields, enter the negative of the amount of margin you have. Since I used .5" margins, I set X and Y to -.5" each, and that aligned the image area of the larger PDF to the document borders of the smaller InDesign document. You could just eyeball it in if you want, but this way you can be a little more sure you aren't cutting off a hair of some of your image area.
If you export that document to PDF, it will look like this:
…which the person who will be putting this together will probably use, since it will be easier to place into something like Publisher or Word because it is smaller than a half page (an image that is larger than the document will probably be reduced in size to fit automatically—something that Word does, and maybe Publisher does that too, but I don't use Publisher so I don't know). How She positions it within the page is up to her, and not something you can control unless you are in the room with her, so it's a crapshoot. She could also use the PDF with the margins if it works better for her, but all you can do is explain to her what you are sending and what you would like.

Can anyone help with my audio recordings that stopped working?

Hi, I have audio recordings available in a secure "member only" area of my website. Unfortunately, from time to time, some recordings stop working. I only find out about this when my students / clients tell me. I don't understand why this occurs or how to fix it. Can anyone help? Rita

It could be a browser issue?
It could also be an internet issue for the user?
The other is that if the are long mp3 files, the server times out the request.
I would log a support ticket with BC and be as specific as possible to the nature of the issue and if there is a way to replicate it. When the Student / Client tells you about the issue it would also be good to get there browser version and platform details to try and create a replicable error that can be solved.
