HT201272 Can I download a purchased audio book on to my iphone as well as my laptop?

I have purchased two audio books from the i tunes store via my i tunes account and downloaded them on to my laptop. When I look at the items purchased on my i phone I can see music that I have purchased but the audio books are not shown. I have only one i tunes account. I look forward to any help you can offer.

Audiobooks are a one-time only download, they won't show in Purchased for redownloading. If you want them on your iPhone then you will need to sync them from your computer's iTunes (they should be in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library, and you can select and sync them via the Books tab) - whn you have audiobooks on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option via the More button in its Music apps

  • HT201269 I can't download my purchased Audio books to my iPhone 5S. Why not?

    I upgraded to the iPhone 5S from 3G and after uploading files, apps and photos I noticed that not all my songs were uploaded and neither were any of my audio books. I clicked on the iTunes app and clicked on the MORE icon where the number 214 is in red. When I click, it shows 214 downloads, none are my audio books. WHen I click on song title it acts like its going to begin download and then I get error message: Unable to Dowload Song - could not be downloaded at this time. I hit the retry button and get the same error message. I cannot find and evidence at all on my iPhone that I have any Audio books that I have purchased through iTunes, and they show records of it. I can't get them to download if there is no reference point.

    I have just had the same issue as "wagtribe".
    I purchased a audio book for an 83-year-old relative that I'm nursing who is loosing her eyesight and bodily functions in what is now expected to be the last week of her life.
    I made the purchase on my 6-Plus synced to one iMac and fully expected it to be available to my iPad mini synced on my second iMac which are all synced to the same iTunes account so that I could leave it in the room with Auntie. Guess what, audio books are not transferable and Apple slugged me twice for the same book just so the old dear could have an audio book from Apple. Apple, I understand you have legal issues with publishers, but as we Australian's would say "Fair go Mate!" Apple can do better, as amply demonstrated with other iTunes file types.

  • HT201272 can we download previously purchased audiobook to other shared items?

    In France we can download Music, Books and Apps from the Cloud (no movies or TV Show unfortunately). But Can't we download previouly purchased Audiobooks? Did I miss something or is it the same than with movies or TV Shows? I can't see anything about this specific media on Apple Support FAQ.
    Thank you.
    PS. If anybody knows when the "Previously Purchased" servicewill be available for Movies and TV Shorts in France, let me know too

    You haven't got copies of them on your backup of your downloads/library ? You are only guaranteed one download of each item from the store (audiobooks and ringtonesare one-time only downloads ; other items are redownloadable depending upon what country that you are in and if they remain in your country's store), so you should be keeping a backup of all of your downloads. If they are still in your country's store then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a redownload.

    You cannot redownload audiobooks at all.
    They will only be where you put them.

    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.

  • HT201306 i downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...where did it go?

    I downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...not in iTunes, not in iBooks...where did it go?

    I had similar troubles on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7) with some audiobooks. Tried redownloading, reported problems, etc.  nothing worked. Even more confusing, I could 'see' it in the On This IPhone in iTunes, but couldn't even see the audiobooks button in iTunes (on the phone). 
    I ended up searching for it by name, from my iPhone home screen (by swiping down, it may be called spotlight?), and where it reads 'Search this iPhone', I just started typing the name of the book, and there it was.
    Not the most elegant solution, but so far all three of the books that I've bought are there.

    Support instructions lookk good for everyhhing except Audio books..... does not work for Previously purchased Audio books to re-download.

    Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so they won't appear in the Purchased link for re-downloading.

  • HT4059 i purchased an ibooks but t is stuck in paused.  where is purchases so  I can press download to get my book

    I bought ibook but it is stuck in paused.  where is the "purchases " key so I can get downloaded.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic book (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iBook store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen after you tap the store button in the top corner of the iBook app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    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.
