How do you make an iPod remember your AUDIO BOOK position?

With podcasts or audio books from Audible.com, my iPod remembers the position in the audio file, so that if you listen to some music and then go back to the podcast or audio book, it resumes where you left off.
I can't figure out for the life of me, how to make audio books that I load from my own CDs do the same. I've been transferring my books-on-CD onto my iPod, but its useless if I can't figure out how to make the iPod remember my position in the book. I'm not going to carry a note pad and pencil around with me
Am I missing an obvious check-box somewhere, or is this just an impossible task due to the horrible design of iTunes?

Rohan: You must use iTunes 5 and the 2005-06-26 firmware (or the 2005-09-?? for the Nano).
Get Info on an individual MP3 you want to make bookmarkable. Select the Options tab and check the box for Remember Last Played Position. I'd recommend also checking the box for Skip when Shuffling so the book won't be played when using the Shuffle Songs menu from the main menu.
Unfortunately there isn't a way to do this with multiple files at once, yet.
Like previously mentioned, they will not be set as Audiobooks but normal Mp3s.

  • How do you make some pictures in your iphoto library, eyes only protected

    I want to make some of my pictures unviewable except by password or something so they are not accessible to the whole family, for example I bought my wife a present and took a picture of it to send to her dad and brother. She opened iphoto and you guessed it the picture was right there in the library for all to see, surprise ruined. There should be some way to hide some of the library pictures????

    but the originals still show in the main iphoto library and are viewable?
    Gee, I don't know, but here's a thought: if you put them in the second library how about you trash them from the first one?
    If you mean create a second iphoto library
    I do
    then how do I enrypt it that is what I want to do with the main library anyway.
    You don't. Again, you put it on an encrypted dmg or disk image. It's the disk that's encrypted, not the library.

  • How do you make a audiomixdown of 4 Audio Tracks in a Sequenz ?

    I have the following Problem.
    A Sequenz with 4 different Audio tracks. 2 Tracks with ambience sound,1 channel with voice over and 1 channel with the interview sound.
    For the final playout i need on channel 1 the final mix of all 4 tracks and on channel 2 the IT Mix (ambience sound and Interviews sound).
    Now my question how do i make a audiomixdown of the different channel , with the Avid mediacomposer it is quite easy you select the desired tracks and make a mixdown. Is there also an mixdown option in Finalcut?
    Thanks for the help.

    Welcome to the forums.
    Well, you can ASSIGN what audio channel the various tracks of audio get output to. But I don't think you can do what you are asking. Because once you assign track 2, 3, and 4 to go out CH 1, then you cannot again assign them to go out to CH 2. The sound can only go out one channel at a time.
    Best thing would be to export AIFF files from the timeline with all the tracks you need...turn off the ones you don't need when you export for CH2.

  • How do you make a call from your computer

    I have an iPhone 6 running 8.02 and Yosemite 10.10.
    I my computer which is an iMac (late 2012) won't allow me to receive or make calls.  I tried pairing my phone via bluetooth but that Doesn't work - tells me to check the network (i am on the correct network).  Is the iMac too old to allow this to happen?
    Thanks

    Create the slideshow either in iPHoto or in iDVD itself. Pick one of the old themes like World, Travel, Windowbox, Scrapbook or Pinboard that have no dropzone and drag a blank, black image file menu's window. That will give you a black menu. Change the text color to whatever you'd like for the play button for the slideshow. If you want the slideshow to start immediately when you put the disk in the DVD player click on the Map button in the bottom toolbar, last one on the left in the middle. In the next window drag the slideshow icon into the box at the far left. Then use the File->Save as Disk Image and complete the project. You can then open the disk image and play it with DVD Player to preview before committing to disk. If it's what you want, burn it with Disk Utility as the slowest speed possible for maximum compatibility with the many DVD players on the market.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    Please share your experience....
    I have a Samsung Laptop,  with broken BIOS for ACPI support. I had to modify my BIOS DSDT by hand to make ACPI working (details are  here http://www.azeemarif.co.nr).

  • How do you make the background of your photo transparent?

    I have just cropped my pic using elements 12 and saved it as a png but it still has white corners around my circular pic. How do I get rid of the white corners?
    Thanks

    Rename the Background layer to anything else; this converts it to a "regular" layer. Select the white corners using the Magic Wand and Delete the selection. The white will be replaced by transparency.
    Initially, before you do the crop you can convert the Background layer. Then after cropping, with the circular selection still active, invert the circular selection and Delete.

  • How do you make room on your start up disk.  i am trying to do the update but don't have enough space

    how do you make room on your start up disk.  i am trying to do the update but don't have enough space

    Try this:
    1. Open "Finder", then navigate to "Movies" on the left side. Click on "iMovie Projects"
    2. Move desired movies and clips to trash, or your flash drive.
    *PS* Its dangerous to have a full hard drive, I would recommend either trashing, or transferring files to another computer. Trash applications you no longer use as well.

  • How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

    How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

    Hi,
    Here is help for the operating system:
    If you are locked to iOS 3 then you have an iPod Touch 1st Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 4 then you have an iPod Touch 2nd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 5 then you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 6 then you have an iPod Touch 4th Gen.
    If you can get iOS 7 and have an iPhone 5 sized screen [bigger] you have the current iPod Touch 5th Gen.
    I assume since it says you have iOS 5.1.1 you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    Also, you may want to sync it so iTunes can tell you or you can look at the model number on the back.
    Hope this helped.
