Lost Purchased Audio Book

Hi,
Unfortunately, I just lost a recently purchased audio book from the iTunes music store. Is there anyway to retrieve an additional copy from the store without having to buy a replacement?

You can only download stuff from the iTunes Store one time. You could try emailing them and seeing if they can make an exception, but I cannot promise anything:

I have just put an audio book into my iTunes music library. When I tried to transfer it to my iPod shuffle it rearranged the tracks so that they are in the wrong order. How can I put them in the order they appear in the book?

I have just put an audio book into my iTunes music library. When I tried to transfer it to my iPod Shuffle it put the chapters in the wrong order i.e. Chap 1, Chap 10, Chap 11 etc. rather than Chap 1, Chap 2, Chap 3 ... How can I get it to put them in the order they appear in the book?

First, we need to know if the audiobook chapters are being treated by iTunes as music files or as audiobooks. If they are not audiobooks purchased from the iTunes store, they might be getting "shuffled". You will need to look at "File" - "Properties" (I think - I don't use iTunes under Windows - or right-click on the file and choose "properties") and look at the media type. If it is "Music", change it to "Audiobook". If this is not the problem, or does not fix anything, please post back.
Actually, looking at your post again, a second thought occurs to me - assuming there are less than 100 chapters in the book, just renaming them with a leading zero on the first nine chapters might do it. A computer will alphabetically sort filenames in the order you quote (1, 10, 11, 12, 13, ... 2, 21, etc.) but a leading zero will fix that (01, 02, 03 ... 10, 11, 12)

Lost purchased audio book from my ipad? ituns dosn,t list it on my account

i purchased the audio book killing lincoln and had it on my ipad and now its gone, how can i get it back? itunes doesn't list it on my account?

Audiobooks are a one-time only download from the store. Do you have a copy of it in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library or on your backup of your downloads/library so that you can sync it back to your phone ? If you haven't kept a backup of your downloads (you should be keeping and maintaining a backup of all of your downloads, you are only guaranteed one download of each item), and if it's still in your country's store, then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/

Why can't you purchase an audio book on the Itunes store from an Apple TV?

Apple seems to be moving everything they sell on Itunes to graphics, away from the traditional text based browse function they started with.
I don't think they've done the most effective job on that move on a PC/Mac, it's sometimes easier just to go through the Apple TV and buy from there and let it just sync and transfer to my Itunes library on my PC.
However, I've noticed that you can't purchase an audiobook from an Apple TV, though you can purchase everything else that can play on an Ipod from there.
Audiobooks just don't show up as an option on the Itunes store from an Apple TV, but they do play on your Apple TV if you purchase them from the Itunes store from the PC or Mac you sync or stream from.
Does anyone know if this is a licensing issue, or yet another oops/oversight on Apple's part? Doesn't seem to make sense, Apple has been pushing tighter and tighter integration between the Itunes store and Apple TV, and it's yet another lost revenue stream on Apple's part that I hope they fix.
If you can buy it from the store, you ought to be able to buy it using your apple TV. Period. Makes as much (non)sense as restricting what content you can purchase if you are buying it from an Iphone vs. a PC vs. a Mac. If you sell content on your store that plays on your devices, then sell it, regardless of which device (that you also make and sell) that your customers access your Itunes store from. It's why they make us sync everything back to Itunes on a computer in the first place.
And yes, while it may sound counter-intuitive to listen to an audio book from a device connected to a TV,
I listen to audiobooks from my Apple TV nightly in my bedroom to go to sleep by, streamed via airtunes to the Aux port on my clock radio by my bed, then turn the TV off and snooze. Works extremely well and has for years now. Beats headphones or futzing with external speakers on an Ipod or trudging upstairs to the room I have my PC in to stream an audiobook to airtunes, then back to bed. With Apple TV, it's pick, click, then turn off the tv and the lights. Sure would be nice to buy an audio book that way also.
Any thoughts on why they would restrict you from buying audiobooks from an Apple TV? To me, it's yet another lost revenue opportunity for impulse buys courtesy of Apple.

Are there step by step instructions to import Audio Book cds into iTunes 12 on Mac?

In iTunes 11, I could see the Audio book CD come up in the left hand column ABOVE my Playlists. I would simply create a new playlist, then click the CD icon, which would open, showing all the tracks in the right hand window. I could simply select all those tracks and then drag them to the left into the waiting Playlist, and it would burn. What is the process now? Thank you!

Ripped, yes, thank you. My window does not look the same: at the top, I can click Playlists and those show. The CD I've got in my drive used to show above that, including the title. Now I can click the CD icon to the left of the My Music, Playlists, Radio & iTunes store and then the window no longer shows the playlists, just the CD's track names and numbers. Can I have both windows open at once so I can drag to the playlists to rip?

Backed up my ipod touch with itunes now all my audio books are in itunes but i cant put them back on my ipod. i have never used such a pathetic system as this. whats the point of buying books if you cant put them back on the ipod to listen to. help please

please help i have an ipod touch downloaded several audio books for it. backed up ipod and synced with itunes now the ipod has no audio books on it and they are in itunes but i can not get them back on to the ipod. apples systems are incredibly awkward. any other system allows for mp3's etc to be drag and drop not this long winded and what appears to be a complete waste of time. you buy things and once synced you loose it and cant put it back

Are audiobooks still configured to sync to your iPod Touch via the iPod's Books configuration tab in iTunes? To check, plug your iPod in and select it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Locate the Books tap along the top and select it. Here you can configure how and what audiobooks sync to your device.
Or if you want to manually drag and drop audiobooks onto your iPod, you'll have to enable the device for manual management. See here for more details.

How do I get my audio books purchased on iTunes onto my iPhone?

I have downloaded an audio book on iTunes, and I have searched my phone and I can't figure out how to listen to this book on my phone. When I look I can see the book is in my iTunes account on my computer. Is there a specific app I need for my phone? I have iBooks and the book is not there. I downloaded an app called Audible which is supposed to recognize my iTunes and it does not.
Help please. I'm not tech savvy and this is so frustrating.

Have you synced it from your computer's iTunes to your iPhone ? Audiobooks are a one-time only download from the store, so they need to synced or copied to any other devices or computer's that you want it on.
If not then it should be in the Books (Audiobooks if using OS X Mavericks on a Mac) part of your computer's iTunes library, and you should be able to sync it by connecting your phone and using the Books tab (in a similar way to how you use Music tab to sync music).
It should go into the Music app on your phone - when you have audiobooks on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option/tab in the Music app.
The iBooks app is just for ebooks, and the Audilbe app is for audiobooks that you buy direct from audible.com

Audio book download from iTunes where is this stored on yr iPad 2

Hi all, I am trying to find where my purchased audio book has been stored by my ipad2. I have successful purchased an podcast from iTunes and easily found how to access this. I have retraced my steps via iTunes and it is telling me it's downloaded but it's hiding and it's driving me mad. As u have guessed Christmas present, thank u

It should have downloaded into the Music app - when you have audiobooks on an iPad you will get an Audiobooks option under the More button at the bottom of the Music app.
Note that audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store (so they won't appear in the Purchased tab for re-downloading), so you may want to copy it to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases so that you can take a backup copy of it - it should copy over to the Books part of your iTunes library.

Audio book download from iTunes

I tried to download an audio book to my 2 week old, IPOD Classic....and it won't download and I get a message "The book was not copied to IPOD because it cannot be played on this IPOD.....I don't understand, are there different audiobooks for different IPODs?

I've had 2 updates to my iTunes software since I purchased my IPOD, seems like once a week there is an update. I'm not sure how to check the authorization, I was looking in my computer settings and didn't see any authorization option. Since this is a home computer, it is not in a network or anything like that. many thanks....for any assistance on the authorization setting location

Audio books tab in itunes missing

Hi
Hope someone can help me find my audio books. They used to appear in a tab in the itunes music section along with artists etc but now I can't find the catagory at all. Does anyone know what to do about this, I've tries tapping on the audio book as it's playing, in the control centre but this just took me back to music. Am Imissing something? Surely Apple didn't miss/forget/delete this in the upgrade;(

Hey ginx13,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are looking for the audiobooks category in your music application. This category defaults to the "More" tab, and only appears if audiobooks are currently on your device (which it sounds like they are).

Tired of tapping More? To rearrange the buttons, tap More, then tap Edit and drag a button onto the one you want to replace.
Thanks,

Audio Book from Media / iTune Track order

I have several audio books on CD media which I would like to listen to on my iPod, but when I import them to iTunes, they are never in the proper order, and when I attempt to reorder them in a play list they won't move. Is there a fix to this?

Take a look at this excellent article from another forum member turingtest2 on audiobooks for iPods.

Audio Books Import into ITUNES

I received an audio book (9cds) and wanted to import into ITUNES. The cd's did transfer to ITUNES but came over as if it were a music file and didn't go to the audiobooks portion of the ipod.
Don't tell me the only way to get an audiobook on your IPOD is to buy it from ITUNES??
Help!

Only audiobooks from ITMS, audible.com and AAC files with m4b extensions (applescripts for mac) show up in audiobook main menu, skip in main menu shuffle, and allow faster/slower/normal playback speed.
Try looking thru these links for help:
