I use my IPod for Audio Books, how do I 'fast forward',

While listening to an audiobook, click the Center button twice to reveal the scrubber bar. Use the scroll wheel (like you do to move up and down the menus) to fast forward or rewind through the audiobook or audiobook track.

  • 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.

    My iPod has music and apps from my apple ID that I downloaded to my iPod via iCloud and some apps that I got free from the store, straight onto my iPod, but my laptop has some music on it aswell, separate from my other library. I want to put the music from my laptop into my iTunes library which I want to use on both computers. Is it possible to do this?
    Thanks.

    - You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
    Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
    - If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
    go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

    If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

  • How do I get songs from my old Ipod onto my Iphone? I have a new apple ID for my phone... Do I need to use my old apple ID to get songs from my Ipod to my Iphone?

    I need help getting songs from my Ipod to my Iphone. I have a different Apple ID on my ipod... I am not sure of that Apple ID. How do I figure that out? How do I get my songs to all be on my Iphone.
    I do not want to repay for songs I have already.

    Are the songs on a computer? Right mouse click on a song and on the summary page it will tell you what AppleID was used to purchase it.
    If you are going to carry on using the same computer then just plug in the iPhone and sync the information there. So you will have a copy on your iPhone and maybe different stuff on your ipod.

  • How many songs can you put in an Ipod touch 64GB if you only use it for music?

    I've heard the Ipod classic 160GB is discontinued. Could someone tell me how many songs you can put in the Ipod touch 64GB if you exclusively use it for music and don't put any photos, videos or anything?

    I just did some quick figuring. There are a lot of variables. My 64gb 5th gen touch has only 56.6gb capacity so says the unit. Settings>General>About.
    MP3 formatted songs vary greatly. I quickly perused my collection and found that the size varied from 3-7MB per song. Using the average of 4MB per song,(7MB is a rather large file for MP3) you will come up with 56.6 X 1024MB (1024 MB per 1GB) =57958MB/4 =14489 songs. This will probably never happen as there is cover artwork and different variables because of file size to consider. This gives you an Idea where to start.

    How to stop the spinning ball/pizza that is stalling repairs to project on imovie 09? on macosx10.5.8 using iomega and superspeed ext h.d. as storage for the events and projects archive of a wedding video that has had audio sync problems on all share formats (iDVD, mp4, and last of all iTunes). The project label now carries signal with yellow triangled exclamation “i tunes out of date”.
    To solve the sync problem I’m following advice and detaching sound from all of the 100 or so short clips.  This operation has been stalled by the spinning ball. Shut down restart has not helped.
    The Project is mounted from Iomega and superspeed ext hd connected to imovie09 on macosx 10.5.8.

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.

  • How do you create a save as default folder for MP3 files used Captivate text to audio voices files?

    How do you create a save as default folder for MP3 files used Captivate text to audio voices files?

    Hi Ed
    Thank you for contacting me, however I already know how to save text to
    audio files via timeline using the Export feature.
    So my question was not entirely clear and I apologize for that.  To explain
    further, whenever I save a text to audio file, captivate takes me to a
    default save as folder where I then have browse back to my production
    folder where I am keeping all my Txt to Aud files.  This is very tedious
    process when you have alot of files to save.  So my question was is there a
    way to configure captivate so I can make my production folder the default
    file for whenever I save a Txt to Audio file through Export feature that
    the system automatically takes me to that production folder, and I am
    spared the long tedious process of saving the file manually to the
    prodcution folder I want.
    I have copy the pathway to the production folder in the URL filed in the
    Save As dialoge box and that workaround as cut the work down but I still
    have to paste that URL field to point the file to the right folder. So it
    would be nice if I could do everything automatically.  Microsoft makes this
    capability in their MS Office applications, so I was thinking Adobe might
    do the same thing.  Your help with this would be appreicated,
    Thanks

  • How can a structured frame be used for translating books to foreign languages?

    I keep reading about how a structured approach can improve the translation process (from english to foreign languages), however, i can't seem to find specifics about a particular method or tutorials about how to go about it (specifically). My question is, how (specifically) can structured framemaker be used for translation from english to foreign languages?  Links to tutorials on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    @Ian Proudfood
    A well organized XML based project will definitely save translation costs. There are many advantages to the XML approach to translation management including:
    Almost zero DTP rework costs - make the EDD/Template do all of the work!
    Translation is application version independent - no need to wait for the Translation Memory/CMS system vendor to support the latest version of FrameMaker.
    »... a well organized XML based project will definitively save translation costs.« – I have read sentences like this from a lot of consultants. And I have consulted/supported a lot of customers after those consultants left the stage. I always hear more or less the same from all of those clients. No question, I hear a lot of arguments for working with XML in tech doc, most of the arguments you mention included. Most of the tech writers are happy with the new structured FrameMaker and enjoy writing. And, cross your heart: Finally there's no alternative to XML in the long term if you take your tech writer job seriously. No question – working with pure XML in a professional information architecture in a structured, guiding editing environment like FrameMaker is cool, fun, faster and produces more open, more accessible, more reusable, more reliable, more consistent, in a nutshell: more valuable data.
    But what I have never ever heard, and I'm talking about several hundred companies, is: We save more money on translation now. You might imagine that this is surprising me since many years. This is why I always ask: Did you save any costs in your translation projects? Surprisingly the answer is always: No. Actually some – no, wait: many – tell me, that their translation agency even charges more now, because they have a lot of new costs:
    Costs, to customize their translation memory system to the clients custom xml,
    costs to follow badly or not documented changes in the client's xml structure (DTD/Schema changes) in the TMS,
    costs because of more engineering work like 
    valididating xml in advance,
    fixing invalid xml exports,
    fixing invalid translations due to – sometimes massively – increased amount of tag errors because of tagging differences of "old" (legacy mif) and "new" (xml) tags,
    dealing with just too big XML files that need to be carefully split, so that the TMS has a chance to read it, or alternatively:
    "glue" the ten-thousand xml "snippets" to more handy chunks,
    project managers and translators that need to do additional checks, validations, verifyings - and often not knowing what to do with those cryptic error messages, meaning additional support costs
    Of course, many if no all of these and many other problems I did not mention here can be solved. And many are not exactly system immanent problems but communication problems (like introducing or renaming elements/attributes but not documenting this and not communicating this to the translation service provider) or would apply to any system change (e.g. also when switching from Word to Frame). However, I do not know of any single translation company on this planet (and I know virtually thousands of them from countries all over the world) that reduced the price per word for just a single pence, just because the client switched over from Word/Quark/FrameMaker/InDesign/Whatever to XML.
    Just ask your translation service provider: Will you charge me less per word if I send you XML instead of MIF? I would really be surprised to hear a "yes". And frankly, if you have ever compared a professional FrameMaker document with the same document in xml format in a professional system like Trados: There is actually no difference that would justify any price difference. The text is the same, the amount of words identical, the number of tags is identical, it even looks identical in the translation system (I can post screenshots if you like). From the translation perspective there is no single reason why a translator should charge a single pence less.
    So, it's a modern myth, that switching to xml reduces translation costs. That might be true, if you come from a really medieval documentation szenario with MS Word or the like, with manual formatting without any styles and so on (I see tech docs every day where even the TOC is typed in manually!!!) and swith from there to a modern structured xml authoring in combination with other supporting tools like authoring memory / authoring assistance, controlled language, translation memory and terminology managent and control, snippet based content management and so on. That will increase the consistency and quality of your data, which will reduce translation costs in the long term. But the truth is: This has nothing to do with XML per se, but with professional writing and professional management.
    So, what's left in the money saving story? No more DTP in the target languages? I always hear, that with XML and FrameMaker you do not have to "format" the translated document. The truth is: If you have a professionally formatted (unstructured) document, you don't have to take care of it, too. Modern tools like Trados keep 100% of the formatting 100% correct in the translated document. If the underlying template is intelligent enough to take account of text amount changes due to longer translations, and if you don't have too many local formatting overrides, the DTP is actually zero and can be reduced to a few mintes/hours for "flying" of the document to check out for unexpeted problems wich can occure in both structured and unstructured documents.
    Just to give some numbers on this: We are processing every day technical documentations for a quite big company. A typical documentation from them is about 250 pages in unstructured FrameMaker 9 (source language is English). Until now they were resistent to all my XML pushing. The Documentation is based on a straight, simple template (with our help "reduced to the max") and there are no formatting overrides (a script automatically checks this). The post translation Quality Assurance effort is - depending on the target language - usually something between 1 to 4 hours – that's a few seconds per page for the languages where already a lot of past Quality Assurance Steps went back into the Translation Memories and up to a minute per page for more "problematic" languages).
    So, again: XML will not save you a single pence on translations. But it might help you to produce more open, more accessible, more reusable, more reliable, more consistent, in a nutshell: more valuable data. But if you already have properly set up (ustructured) FrameMaker Documents and already work with a professional translation memory system, you will be quite disappointed to learn, that the impressive money saving promises you recently saw on that great PowerPoint slides melt down to a few bucks over a couple of years.
    Kind regards,

  • HT1351 Audio book download on computer, shows up in my g drive for ipod, but will not connect with my device ...goes through syncing, but audio book not is transferred to actual device

    Audio book appears in my downloads, has been transferred to ipod (it shows up in g drive when I plug in ipod), but when I complete the sync, and disconnect ipod, the book is not transferred to ipod

    Same problem here with the same iPod- Gen4, 20 G- this started on Friday. None of the "fixes" Apple offers help because iTunes and My Computer freeze when the iPod is connected. If I disconnect while My Computer is open, it shows up briefly as the E: drive with an exclamation point and then disappears. If I disconnect with iTunes open, everything that I tried to open while it was connected suddenly pops up. I can't restore the iPod because the Updater freezes while the iPod is connected. There is no difference when I try to do these things in disk mode. The disk manager function in windows sees the iPod, but freezes up when you try and click on it.
    I've run all the diagnostic tests and it passed them all. It does the same thing on other computers (all PCs) that I've tried.

  • I downloaded audio books from overdrive media and my ipod nano 6th generation showed it was transferring why can't I find the audio books on my ipod?

    I downloaded audio books from overdrive media and my ipod nano 6th generation showed it was transferring and now I can't find it on my Ipod where would it be?

    The problem may have been in how you transfered it.  You didn't go into much detail.  Just be sure to follow the steps in the tutorial below.  Note Paragraph 5.
    Many libraries worldwide now use Overdrive Media Console, which comes in Mac an Windows versions http://www.overdrive.com/Software/omc .  Some find the mobile device transfer process confusing.  To load or delete a WMA or MP3 (Macs can only download MP3 books) audiobook onto an Apple mobile device see the "How to Transfer to a Portable Device" video in the guides at Step 7, then do the following.
    1. For Windows versions, you must first do a security update of Windows Media Player (even though you won't be using it) using Internet Explorer at http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/indivsite .
    2.  Open iTunes, plug the mobile device into the computer USB port and open the Overdrive Media Console.
    3. Highlight the mobile device in the left hand menu of iTunes and insure the "Manually manage music and videos" box is checked in the Summary Tab. If the mobile device storage is full, transfering will delete that portion of music necessary for the ebook.
    4. Highlight the book you want to transfer in the Overdrive Media Console and click the Transfer Button.   A window opens permitting you to click the boxes for parts of the book you wish to transfer.
    5. After the book has been transfered, when you click the disclosure triangle (arrow) to the left of the iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes, MP3 books will show up under the Music subsection and WMA books will show up in the Books subsection.  Once the mobile device is disconnected from iTunes, MP3 books will show up in the Songs list of the mobile device and WMA books will show up in the Books list.
    6. To remove a book from a mobile device plug the device into the USB port and open iTunes. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes so that you can see the device’s subcontents. For an MP3 book select the Music subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete.  For a WMA book, select the Book subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete.
    7. The Overdrive Media Console Guided Tour (videos) is at http://www.overdrive.com/Solutions/Libraries/tour/MenuWelcome.html .  The "Portable Devices" and "How to Transfer to a Portable Device" videos are there.
    8. To find a nearby library for ebooks search http://search.overdrive.com .  You can download the software, search for books and see tutorials without an account at the website of any library that uses Overdrive, however, you need a library card to download books.  At this library site, for example, the software and guided tour are at the bottom of the left hand menu.

  • I downloaded a WMA audiobook from library using Overdrive. It shows up on my Itunes listing of Audiobooks on my Ipod, but on the actual Ipod it only shows up on Playlists. How do I get it to show up under Audiobooks?

    I downloaded a WMA audiobook from library using Overdrive. It shows up on my Itunes listing of Audiobooks on my Ipod, but on the actual Ipod it only shows up on Playlists.  It is marked as an audiobook in Options | Media Kind.  It is also marked to Remeber Position, but it does not do that. How do I get it to show up under Audiobooks and remember the position?  I have a 4th Gen Ipod running Ios5

    Check out the instructions for a work around on this post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18702732#18702732
    This worked for me.  I would like to see Apple fix this issue, as it isn't very fun to have to do this for every downloaded book.
