I can't transfer an Audiobook purchased on iPad to my computer

I bought an audiobook from iTunes Store and downloaded it direct to my iPad2.  I can't find how to now sync this with my iMac. 
In the Books menu on the Mac, if I click on syncing audiobooks I get a message saying that if I proceed, anything on my iPad will be erased.
Grateful for any help.

Excellent - thanks very much

  • HT4539 Why can't I get audiobooks from my iPad to my iPod?

    I can't transfer my audiobooks from my iPad to my iPod. I find this "new iPad" to be tarded x 3. Which makes it "********". Had I known that Apple dumbed this ipad down on purpose, I would have never bought it. Weird.

    Transfer the purchase from the ipad to your computer:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Sync it to your ipod.

  • How can i transfer my new purchased itunes apps to my itunes library

    actually having several problems, installed itunes on a new computer, have transfered/sync all of my existing ipod touch apps/music successfully. I purchased new apps and a movie, but they do not appear on my itunes library, how can i transfer these new purchases, to my new itunes library on the new computer, so they can be synced to my ipod touch. also, my computer is online and my ipod is online, but when i connect the ipod touch to my computer, and i try to update the software update, it says it cant because its not connected to the internet?...any info on either of these topics. thanks

    Welcome to the discussions,
    as already mentioned, use File->transfer purchases to copy your apps and bought media to your computer, or right click on the device in the device list and choose "transfer purchases"
    To make sure that iTunes can contact the Apple server, check your security settings as well: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

  • How can I transfer all iTunes purchases from one apple id to another

    How can I transfer all iTunes purchases from one apple id to another?

    Don't agree. I have two accounts, one for work which I set up years ago and bought a few tracks. I've recently bought iPhone and iPad and created a home ID and wanted to transfer the old purchaces. Everyone says it can't be done, but I've done it.
    1. on the iPhone/iPad change your "store" Apple ID to the one you want ot transfer from.
    2. go into iTune on the device and download the purchaces.
    3. on you PC/Mac change the iTunes login to the same as the device's ID
    4. sync your device
    5. change both ID's back and the purchaces stay on both iTunes and your device.
    Delmar,
    The procedure you describe is putting content from two different IDs into a single library, which can readily be done.
    However, each item of purchased content will still be tied to the ID from which it was originally purchased, and they will be treated separately for purposes of Cloud, Match, Purchase History, etc.

  • How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?

    How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?
    They chapters are mp3 files. Changing the genre to "audiobook" or "audiobooks" does help.
    I am sure this question will come up a lot, since the book in question is "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," purchased from Pottermore.com.

    The one thing I would add to the instructions above is that the "Media Kind" menu is on the "Option" pane in the "Get Info" Window. This procedure has allowed me not only to make imported audiobooks show up as audiobooks, but imported podcasts show up as podcasts.

  • HT201272 I have transferred all my purchased tv shows to my pc, how can I transfer it back to my iPad?

    I have transferred all my purchased tv shows to my pc, how can I transfer it back to my iPad? On my iPad, under purchased icon, there is nothing shown any more.I tried to sync back from my pc to iPad, it shows it has transferred a copy back to my iPad, but still nothing is on my iPad! Please help if you know how to fix

    The first thing you want to check is icloud.com to see if your calendars are there.  If not you will need to recover from a back up.  More than likely our iPad was baking up to iCloud if you turned on the Back up feature, so you would want to go to settings, then iCloud and click on storage and back up to check there to see when your iPad last backed up to iCloud if it did at all.

    is a article on backing up and restoring your device
    http://heresthethingblog.com/2012/03/16/restore-icloud-backup-ipad/ shows to to restore your iPad from a iCloud back up.  If you are unsure of the steps or you are not able to do either you should contact iCloud support through expresslane.apple.com to see if they can help you get your calendars back. 

  • How do I transfer an audiobook from my IPad to my MP3

    How do I transfer an audiobook, purchased from ITunes, from my IPad to my MP3

    If purchased on the iPad then you need to transfer the audiobook to your computer first. Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and then do File > Transfer Purchases. You can't connect and mp3 player/iPod/iPhone etc to the iPad in order to transfer music between them.

  • How can I transfer music from my old iPad to my new MacBook ?

    How can I transfer music from my old iPad to my new MacBook ?
    My old MacBook was stolen and now I have all my music still on my IPad but like to get it back in my ITunes as well, is this possible ?

    If the music was purchased from the iTunes Store, simply sign into your iTunes Store account on iTunes. From there, go to the main page of the store. Then, on the right, there should be a purchased button. Tap there, and walla! You can download all of your past purchases. If it wasn't from the iTunes Store, use a third party Mac app.

  • How can i transfer rental movies from my Ipad to my iTunes library before updating

    how can i transfer rental movies from my Ipad to my iTunes library before updating ?

    According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1415 :
    You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie or TV show on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
    So I assume that you cannot use File > Transfer Purchases to copy them to your computer (though there is no harm in trying)

  • How can I transfer my iTunes library and playlists from one computer to another?

    How can I transfer my iTunes library and playlists from one computer to another?

    Copy the iTunes folder (Mac: Home\Music or PC: My Music) to the same location on the new computer. If an iTunes folder already exists on the new computer (it will on a Mac) replace it with one you copied.

  • How can I transfer "Pages" files  from my IPad to my Mac?

    How can I transfer "Pages " files from my IPad to my IMac, I cannot use ICloud because I have Mountain Lion installed on the IMac?

    Actually, you can use iCloud and the way that you so it is to log into iCloud.com on the Mac (use Safari for best results) click on the Pages icon and then drag the Pages files into the browser window. It works the other way around as well. Log into iCloud.com on the Mac and download the files from Pages (that you created on the iPad) in iCloud onto your Mac. You can click on the file in the documents window and select it to Download by clicking on the Gear icon or right click upon the file and select download.
    The files will then sync to the Pages app on the iPad - assuming hat you have use iCloud tuned on in Settings>Pages>Use iCloud>On. I have an iMac running Tiger 10.4.11 that I can still move Pages/Word files back and forth Iike this.
    Also, File Sharing with iTunes is a great way to move the files back and forth.
