How to get Audiobook on iphone to itunes

I purchased an audiobook and a book by the same name and downloaded them on my iphone. The book syncs with my itunes but the audiobook doesn't. I dont't even see an audiobooks category in itunes. I have the latest version and already looked in edit > preferences. There is no option for "audiobooks" there.
So i tried to go to the itunes store and download the already purchased audio book but in the itunes store it wants me to purchase it! No "download" link. How do I get the audio book from my iphone to my itunes?

You should be able to copy it from your iPhone to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, and it should then show in the Books part of your iTunes library (there isn't a separate audiobooks section, they and ibooks both go into Books).
Also audiobooks are currently a one-time only download (the same as ringtones) so you won't be able to re-download them from the store - so ideally you'd take a backup of it.

  • How to get rid of iPhone in iTunes

    I accidently connected an iPhone with a Mac I do not want to synch with. Now when opening iTunes this iphone always apears and shows up inside the device list. How can I just get rid of this device without touching / loosing any datsa on the device itself?
    Many thanks.

    If all it is doing is sitting there, then there is no danger to any content unless you start a sync.
    But one way to stop it wirelessly connecting at all would be to switch off wifi on the phone while you have iTunes open on your Mac.

  • How to get music from iphone into itunes library, that was not purchased via itunes??

    Hard drive crashed, I restored my itunes music from a backup, but the backup was not updated, I'm missing music that I have on my iphone playlist, this music I got from a friend, I didn't buy it from itunes. Question: How can I get this musica from the iphone into my itunes library???
    Thank's for the help!!!

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.
    You may be able to purchase a third party program ( not supported by Apple).

  • HT4113 how do i reset my iPhone without iTunes?

    i would like to know how can i enable my iphone without itunes.

    A reset has nothing to do with iTunes.
    What is meant by "enable" the iPhone?
    If it is locked with a passcode and the passcode is unknown or forgotten, the only way to get the device functional is a restore via iTunes on a computer.

    please.

    Hey john cummin1,
    Thanks for the question. The following article outlines audiobooks playback on iPod shuffle:
    iPod shuffle: Playing audiobooks and podcasts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1831
    Bookmarks
    iPod shuffle allows you to bookmark audiobooks purchased from Audible.com (files with a .aa extension) and the iTunes Store (files with a .M4B extension). If you stop or pause one of these spoken word files, iPod shuffle will automatically bookmark that spot. The next time you play that file, it will start playing from the bookmarked spot.
    Bookmarks sync to and from iTunes, meaning you can listen to an audiobook on iPod shuffle or in iTunes from where you last stopped listening. The bookmarked spot that is further along, whether in iPod shuffle or iTunes, becomes the effective bookmark.
    To force iTunes to set the bookmark, play an audiobook in iTunes, play another song in iTunes, and then update iPod shuffle.
    Bookmarks are not available for audiobooks or spoken word files in any other file format (such as MP3) than the two formats mentioned.
    Chapter Marks
    Some audiobooks feature chapter marks that allow you to navigate through chapters while listening in iTunes. iPod shuffle (3rd generation) allows you to navigate through an audiobook using these chapter marks.  Simply select the playlist that iPod shuffle creates for the specific audiobook you'd like to listen to and while listening, double-click the Center button to go to the next chapter or triple-click the Center button (within 6 seconds of the start of the chapter) to go to the previous chapter. See HT3458 for additional controls using the remote. iPod shuffle (1st and 2nd generation) does not support chapter marks.
    Note: Chapter marks will be ignored if the audiobook playing is in a mixed playlist that you created (such as one that contains other songs or podcasts).
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    If contacts on each iPhone are being synced direct with the same supported address book app on the computer via the iTunes sync process, deselect Sync Contacts under the Info tab for the iPhones that you don't want synced with the same address book followed by a sync.
    If each iPhone is sharing the same Apple iCloud account with Contacts enabled for over the air syncing, each iPhone needs its own iCloud account.
