I can't put an audiobook I bought on iTunes on my iPod. Any suggestions?, I can't put an audiobook I bought on iTunes on my iPod. Any suggestions?

I purchased an audiobook from iTunes a few months back and i can't put it on my iPod. I have an 80 gig iPod with PALENTY of space but for whatever reason i can't load the audiobook onto it. What's frustrating is that i can load movies, music and games on, just not this d*%$ audiobook. It's an older iPod (probably first or second generation at best) but i've never had any issues up till now. I manually manage all my songs on iTunes and my iPod, my computer IS authorized and i purchased this audiobook on my account which i've used to buy TONS of other stuff with. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for the quick reply, Niel
Well, I am not exactly sure how to check that I used the same ID for those songs. I'm certain I used the same ID ("[email protected]"), but I recently changed my password. I did open up one of the songs that I can't play/sync using Command-I, and it says that it was purchased by "Sheryl" (mgvartist), which is my mum's name, but "mgvartist" is my ID name (just without the email attachments). I have no idea why this is like this or how I can change it.
I am afraid to delete these songs without knowing for sure if I can even redownload them. How can I check that I am allowed to redownload them? (I live in the United States.)
Thank you for your time

    I have two computers with itunes. I usually use my home computer to purchase music/audiobooks and then put them onto my iphone, but today I bought an audiobook on my office computer from itunes and when I try to put it on my iphone it won't let me unless I erase my current Itunes library that's on my iphone. How do I get the audiobook onto my iphone without erasing anything?

    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

  • I can't find the audiobook I bought with my old iPhone to put it on my new iphone

    How can I put the audiobook I bought with my old iPhone on my new iPhone?

    It sounds like Safari has somehow been installed in a user / Applications folder instead of the Macintosh HD / Applications folder where it should be.
    Log in as the user that can open Safari, navigate to home / Applications and drag the Safari icon out of there to the Macintosh HD / Applications folder. Then drag it to the Dock and drop it when the other icons move aside for it.
    You should now be able to access Safari from all accounts.

    Download them to the computer to which the iPod is synced, re-sync.

  • Syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist.  Sync menu doesn't show all playlists.  Help

    syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist.  Sync menu doesn't show all playlists.  Help

    I have the same problem with podcast playlists.  When I go to the music window in my iPhone devices section, the playlists I have created on my macbook pro in iTunes do not appear as an option to sync with the iPhone.  I know some web radios streams, like the BBC, won't transfer because of compatibility issues, but the playlists of podcasts that I have created consist entirely of podcasts downloaded from the podcasts section on the iTunes Music Store.  They used to show up and sync properly before I upgraded to OS 5.1.1, but now they don't.
    Does anyone have a fix and am I right in surmising that the cause is a glitch in OS 5.1.1?

    If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
    If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

  • I have been trying to put music I bought on I tunes on my Samsung Note 2 phone but it won't play.I try to convert them to mp3 format so I can play them on my phone but it won't let me convert them because it says they are protected. Can anybody help me?

    I have been trying to put music I bought on Itunes on my Samsung Note 2 but my media player won't play m4p files so I tried to convert the files to mp3 but I couldn't, because a message says they are protected files. I then tried downloading different media player apps to see if they would play them but had no success.Can anybody help with a solution to this problem?

    First quit iTunes and look in your iTunes folder.
    On Windows, the iTunes folder is in your My Music folder.
    On Mac, the iTunes folder is in your Music folder.
    Follow this path:    iTunes > iTunes Media > Music >
    Here there should be all your music folders. Open the folders containing the music that is not playing. Right click "get info" (mac) or right click "properties" (windows).
    This window will tell you the file type. iTunes will play music in AAC, MP3, and Lossless, etc.
    If the files are .wma you will need to convert them into ACC or MP3 format for it to play on an iPod. In iTunes, highlight the tracks that you want to convert, then on the menu bar, Advanced > Create AAC/MP3 version and the tracks will convert. Delete the old files.
    If the file extenstion is anything like .exe .txt .rar  then you don't have an audio file.

  • Is there anyway to take a downloaded app from one computer and put it on another without rebuying it. I have a macbook that I bought the new iMovie and iPhoto on, but I would rather it be on my iMac. So is there anyway I can change it?

    Is there anyway to take a downloaded app from one computer and put it on another without rebuying it. I have a macbook that I bought the new iMovie and iPhoto on, but I would rather it be on my iMac. So is there anyway I can change it? I thought that if I bought it the apps on my macbook, they would be avaliable on my imac like the mobile devices operate. The macbook has 10.6.8 cause its a older model and I think lion would slow it down. Any help??

    Just redownload it on the other computer by logging into the App Store with the same Apple ID you used to purchase it.

  • How can i download a book that i bought on itunes and put it in my ibooks so that i can read it on my itouch?

    I recently got my brother's old iTouch iPod for x-mas.  In addition to the music i've put on it i thought it  might be cool to read books on it so i bought a book ("Tweak" by Nic Sheff) and tried to put it on my iTouch/pod by dragging and dropping it in the section.  It told me that i could not do that because i needed to first download the app iBooks.  So i proceeded to download the app and put that on my iTouch/Pod and that was all well and succesful, but then i tried again to drag and drop the book.  It shows the book as being on my iTouch/Pod when it is plugged into my computer, like it says on my computer's iTunes that the book is on the iTouch/Pod, but when i look for it on my iTouch/Pod i cannot find it in my iBooks app, nor can i find it inany other section or any other part.  I'm thoroughly confused.  Does anyone understand what i'm trying to ask/Have i explained my problem well enough?  Please, pleaseeee can someone help a sister out?  Your help would be so greatly appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    A not-so-savvy individual named elizabeth
    p.s. i am not entirely sure about the operating system i have selected, i took a guess at that. it says iTunes 10 on my iTunes. not sure about the iPod/Touch, can not find anything on there.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Elizabeth.
    You should be able to access any book you have purchased from iTunes anywhere.
    Do you have settings > iBooks > Show all purchases turned on.

  • I bought an IPOD shuffle (1st gen.) at a pawn shop and it is still synced to previos owners itunes acct. and I can put songs on it b/c I don't have their log in info. So how do I clear it out so I can sync it with my itunes acct.?

    OK..So I bought an older IPOD shuffle (1st generation) at a pawn shop. I never have had an itunes acct. So I set one up and plugged the IPOD into my laptop. Apparently the previous owners itunes acct. is still synced with it and I cant put any songs on it b/c I do not have their itunes acct. info (log-in). So my question is how do I clear their info( un-sync) out of this IPOD so I can then be able to put it on my acct. Its not letting me restore it to factory settings without their info either. HELP!

    iPods (except for iPod touch) are not linked to any iTunes "account."  They are associated with your iTunes library. The account in iTunes is your Apple ID, and that is used to buy and download content from the iTunes Store.  It is not required to use an iPod.
    The 1st (and 2nd) gen shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library at a time.  When you connect it, iTunes should prompt you to start using it with your iTunes library, and warn that the shuffle's existing content will be erased.  Have iTunes erase the shuffle, and it will be associated with your iTunes library going forward.  You can then add content to your shuffle.
    The need for the previous owner's Apple ID and password should only come up if you are trying to transfer existing content from the shuffle to your iTunes library, AND the previous owner had content purchased from the iTunes Store.  Just cancel out of that step, if iTunes asks.

    What you can redownload will depend upon what country that you are in (not all content types can be redownloaded in all countries) and whether they are still in your country's store (content providers occasionally remove their items from sale) - if you go into the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes you should see what you can re-download :
    Or on your phone you can use the Purchased tabs in the iTunes and App Store apps.

  • HT5622 I think my granddaughter bought a $3.99 app after I put the password in for a free app.  How can I find out what she purchased?  Can I get credit for it?  I just got an email from my credit card confirming the purchase.

    The password is good for 15 minutes to make purchases. You should receive a receipt in 24 to 48 hours for the purchases. There is a link to Report an issue. You could use that to start a conversation with iTunes Support about a refund.
    Apple considers all sales final. But has been known to offer a one time refund. So the question is, do you want to use your one time refund on this purchase or one more expensive in the future?
