How to play next audio book file/chapter?

Trying to setup an ipad2 for my mother and load some of her audio books on it.  The audio books are mostly in mp3 format with some being in m4a.  Books are marked as audio book format.
Problem is that when placed on the ipad and accessed by going through music -> more -> audio books, the books appear, selecting one shows all files/parts of the book, but when playing, it does not advance to next file.  Particular problem in which some books are split into 3 minute chunks per file.
Taking the same files and placing them on my ipod 5.5, they play fine and auto-advance fine.
Any ideas?
Ipad 2 w/ iOS 5

iOs 5 Bug identified...
After selecting an audio book, if you select a file/chapter directly, it will play only that file/chapter and NOT continue to the next one. Also, no icon (speaker) is shown for the files/chapter being played.
If instead you press the play button at top left (not main focus on screen), then the book starts playing from beginning, an icon is present next to file/chapter, and the files/chapter are played sequentially automatically.

  • How do I download audio books by chapter

    When I download audio books into my iTunes, they arrive in one big long stream.  I then fall asleep listerning to it, and find I am far too far ahead, and there's this tiny little slider to push back and forth trying to find out the last bit I can remember listening to!
    I downloaded a timer, so I could make sure I only listened to 30 mins at a time, but it's still difficult to move the tiny slider back to the right place - I have to memorise the exact time in the book where I started off, etc etc.
    Thinking there may be some way of downloading books by chapter?  Or maybe another application?

    Charlene,

  • After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books.  Also I can't edit and copy multiple text messages.

    After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books.  Also I can no longer edit a and copy multiple text messages like before. Is there a way to do these things I am missing?

    Not only can i not see the individual chaptes -- apparently like you and everyone else suffering through the "improved" iOS7 -- when my audiobook repeats a "file" within  chapter, which it sometimes does, I cannot get "inside" the chapter and move forward to where I'm supposed to be.
    Whatever happened to "if it ain broke.......???

  • How to Organize Many Audio Book Chapters?

    I'd love pointers to tutorials or tips regarding how to organize audiobooks. I ripped an audiobook that resulted in 60 different chapter files. My itunes is a wreck because of all the small files.
    Is there a way to group them to one file and not have them clutter up the main list of audio book files?
    Is there a way to put all those little files into a playlist and not have them show is the main list of audiobook files?
    Thanks

  • HT1848 how do i delete audio books from my iPod nano 5th generation

    How do I delete audio books from my iPod Nano 5th generation. Have deleted from iTunes library & chose sync but it is still on my iPod.

    What you do is this; the next time your ipod is jacked to the USB port on you computer and it shows under "Devices" in your Itunes library. click on that folder (your ipod) and it will have eight folders above the Ipod's state.
    That was step one; step two is once you see this bar above the ipod's state in the Ipod's folder under "devices" scroll down the horizontal bar until you see audiobooks
    Itune's is very user friendly and will give you the option to pick and choose or pick all. to get the audio books off your ipod pick and choose the audio books you want on you're ipod

  • How do I add audio books to my shuffle

    How do I add audio books to my shuffle

    If this is a 4th (or 3rd) gen shuffle, and you use automatic syncing for loading songs...  Select the shuffle in iTunes.  There is a row of "tabs" (buttons) starting with Summary.  Click on Books there.  This is the Books tab, where you tell iTunes how to sync audiobooks to the shuffle.  Set it up as desired, and click Apply.
    NOTE:  If your shuffle is currently NOT set up for automatic syncing, its content will be replaced by content selected in the sync settings.
    If you are NOT using automatic syncing for songs, so you have been loading songs manually by dragging them to the shuffle in iTunes, then you should NOT do the above.  Instead, you can load audiobooks the same way.  Drag the books you want to the shuffle from your Books library in iTunes.
    If this is a 1st or 2nd gen shuffle, it is different.  Please post back.

  • I have an ipod nano but i dontknow how can syc the audio books on it?!

    how can i use audio books in my ipod nano?!

    Configure the audiobooks to sync to your iPod from under the iPod's Books configuration tab in iTunes.
    To access this configuration tab, plug in your iPod and select it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab.  Now locate the Books tab and select it.  Here you can configure what and how audiobooks are synced to the device.
    If you make any changes to this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button on in the lower right hand corner.
