Need to go to the "Books" Tab from your iPad, Scroll down... to audiobooks, they hid this well. You can select individual books and or playlists.

My Address Book won't sync with iphone anymore...HELP!

My Address Book won't sync with iphone anymore. After installing the latest update for iphone, my address book no longer syncs with iphone and vica versa. Anyone had this problem? Can you help?

Audio books won't sync

I follow the instructions for syncing audiobooks, but the books won't load on the ipod nana (7th generation). The do show up in Itunes.

Thank you BobbyD for your suggestion. This article had useful info -, all of which I tried at some point - but did not fix the problem. After 3 hours on the phone spread over 2 sessions, with Apple Support, the solution was to start over- delete all the books from Itunes, copy the files from my audible books download folder to my desktop, and reimport into Itunes. There were still a few that would not sync to the nano, but they were old files. The new books all synced finally.
We were also able to get the files to load on the Nano one at a time by first starting to play it on ITunes, then drag and dropping it into the nano. This seemed an arduous way to do it, and clearly wasn't what was intended, but it indicated that the issue was with the file, not the nano, so we tried several things related to the files, and finally took the action described above.
I can't wait to buy more books and see what happens with those books.

Audio book doesn't sync to iPhone 4

I have downloaded a new audio book, but when I sync my phone, it doesn't get transferred. I can do a general search on my phone and find it when I'm home, most likely due to home sharing, but it doesn't exist in the Music app. Am I doing something wrong?

Be sure that you have checked to sync your audiobook on the Books tab of your iTunes sync settings, and that your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to purchase it (in iTunes>Authorize this Computer). Also, if you're using Home Sharing with multiple iTunes libraries, be sure that the audiobook is actually in the iTunes library you are trying to sync with (rather than just being shared from an iTunes library on another computer).

Address book won't sync with iPhone

I just got a MacBook Air, and it will not sync with my iPhone contacts. I called support, and spoke to three people and no one could figure it out... In fact, no one even tried anything.
Does anyone have an idea? The OS is the new Lion one (sorry, this is my first

Hey,
So I kept looking for another answer and found this answer in another thread:
"It is called "sync" for the reason it not called a transfer. It wants and is designed to "sync" make each other match. If it deleted all on the phone it is because you just had zero contacts in the address book on the computer (which on first sync is considered master copy). If you put one dummy contact into address book on computer then try to sync it will see it needs to "merge" to get the sync process coordinated."
I tried it out and it worked. I originally already had one contact in my address book, but it was me and apparently I don't count as a human being, so I added the dummy contact and it worked after I clicked 'Merge'. Hope it works for you too.

Lost all my contacts in Mac address book. Tried syncing my iPhone/iPad contacts to Mac is not working. Please help

Lost all my contacts in Mac address book. Tried syncing my iPhone/iPad contacts to Mac via iTunes and is not working. Please help

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unless you have the contacts backed up somewhere, you won't be able to restore them.
You and your son should have your own iCloud accounts then you can keep your own contacts and calendars etc and avoid deleting each others.

HT1420 why can't i see a audio book i download on my iphone on my ipad

why can't i see a audio book i download on my iphone on my ipad

Did you put it on your ipad?
If not, then that is why.
Did you transfer it from your iphone to your computer?
Did you then sync it to your ipad?
If not, then it will not be on your ipad.

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update

My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update. The "sync calendars" option is no longer available after I installed this update. Any ideas???I have tried a few times to sync, and nothing has changed on my calendars. I have had so many troubles with this update. Grrr...

I tried the same but it did not worked. But, i got a solution. I accessed gmail on my laptop. Went to gmail settings. There is a option to add a device. A iPhone was already listed. I clicked Revoke to remove it. Then i clicked add new device and gave it iPhone name and a new 16-20 character password was geenrated. I used it to configure gmail on my Iphone and it worked beautifully. So glad i have been able to fix this. That password is a one time password to authenticate that device.

ITunes won't sync my iPhone 4 or connect to iTunes store.

Hello, I have iTunes 10.7 and it won't sync my iPhone 4, it gets stuck at step 2 "making backup", it also does not connect to iTunes store, it keeps rolling "accessing iTunes Store" and nothing happens, I checked the diangostics options, it says "Internet connection verified" and "Secure link to iTunes failed".
Note that I use Windows Vista Business (Service Pack 2), and that I made sure that Windows firewall allows iTunes to connect to the internet via both ports 80 and 443.
Note: my iTunes still syncs my iPod Nano 4th generation successfully but it won't sync my iPhone 4.

Please help, thanks.

Man! thank you so much! After applying that command the problem completely disappeared and now iTunes is working perfectly! I really don't know how to thank you! I have been suffering from this problem since more than a month ago, I even bought new albums and couldn't sync them to my iPhone!
Not only that, I had also other issues with iTunes like when Windows starts up the "Apple Mobile Device Service" always occupies %50 of the CPU usage, that issue has been resolved also.
I also had problems with Google Chrome, Google Chrome was not able to open a lot of pages i.e. hotmail.com, 9gag, and sometimes YouTube, but now it's working perfectly! Seriously what kind of magice command is that?!
But I also was able to recognize what was causing the problem, I'm using the program "Internet Download Manager 5.19", and after I applied that command and restarted my computer, this window appeared:
First I clicked "Yes" and it asked to reboot the system, after rebooting, all the old problems were back, so I recognized that IDM is what was causing the problem, so I applied the command once again, restarted my computer, and this time I clicked "No" to this window, and now everything is working just fine.
Thank you very much for your help, you saved my life!
Cheers

How do I sync an audio book in itunes with my iphone

I downloaded an audio book from Amazon/Audible and it is currently in my itunes library. When I try to sync with my iphone, I am unable to find my list of audiobooks for purposes of syncing. When I am in the Sync function in itunes, I see music, video, books, etc. but no selection for audiobooks (Note, the Books selection is only for electronic copies of print books). Where do I find audiobooks for purposes of syncing?

With your phone connected, iTunes running, click on the "Book" tab, scroll all the way down, is sync audiobooks checked? If not, put a check in the box.

Thank you very much, that worked. I learned something as I never tryied to right click on my phone in Itunes before.
Thanks again.

I deleted an audiobook from Itunes on my computer and emptied my trash, plugged in Iphone 5s to sync Itunes. Audio book still appears on my Iphone. How do I get rid of audio book on Iphone?

I deleted an audiobook from Itunes on my computer, emptied my trash, they attached Iphone 5s to computer to sync computer to Iphone thinking that by deleting the audiobook from Itunes, the audiobook would then be deleted from my Iphone. It's still on my Iphone. How do I get rid of the audiobook on my phone?

You transfer the purchases to the computer you use to sync the iPhone. You can use a thumb drive or an external HD, etc. Read this: iTunes for Mac - How to copy purchases between computers: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1373

HT1420 cant find audio books i purchased on my iPhone.

I just got the iPhone 5, but i lost the audio books i bought on my old iPhone 4s.
I bought the audio books about a week or two before i got the new phone, and never backed up my old phone before i traded it in.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Audiobooks are not currently part of the content that can be re-downloaded. You should sync your audiobooks to other devices via iTunes on your computer.

Moved picture folders around now won't sync with iPhone

I recently moved around some pictures and now most of my pictures will not sync to my iPhone.
I have tried deleting the photo cache, moving pictures into a single folder and resetting the sync history, uninstalled iTunes, restored phone, copied all my photos to another location, and each time I get an error that that my iPhone can't be read or written to or the device times out.
The strangest thing is most of the folders or pictures it doesn't seem to like were pictures that were on the phone previously or were not touched when I moved stuff around.
I am running Vista and have even tried single folders and that works for some but most error out.
Any help would be appreciated.

Then it is not a bootleg!
I dowloaded the songs, and now it won't sync with my iphone. I use icloud for my songs, and I also have imatch. WHy can't I get these songs on there?
It is possibly an incompatibility with audio format or sample rate.
First, make sure that the songs play in iTunes on your computer. If so, right-click and choose "create AAC version." Use the new AAC version with your iPhone.
