Is it possible to transfer an mp4 audio book from my computer to be used off-line on an ipad

Is it possible to save an audio book file on the ipad, so that I can listen to the book when I am outside the USA?

Yes.  If it's on your computer's iTunes then connect the iPad and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and then on the right-hand side use the Books tab (the audiobook is in the Books part of your iTunes library ?) to select and sync it to the iPad's Music app - when there are audiobooks on the iPad you should get an Audiobooks option under the More button in the Music app. You shouldn't need to be online in order to listen to it

    I record audio books from my library onto my old iPhone. I download the book from Overdrive to my computer. I connect the Iphone to the computer and transfer the audio-book to the iPhone.  When I am done listening to the book i delete it from the iPhone by connecting it to the computer and doing a manual sync. this worked fine until the last i-tunes update on my computer. Now when the iPhone is connected and i tell the computer to delete a book it is only deleting the name of the book on the computer it is not deleting the book from the phone. The next time I connect the phone to the computer the program does not show the book in the phone but it is still in the phone.  I have no more room on my phone to get any new books on it.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? Please

    You are correct.  Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases.  You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again:  Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

  • HT1473 How to I put an audio book from my computer onto my iPod touch4

    Hi, I got an audio book from my library and want to put it onto my iPod but I'm not sure how to.
    I downloaded the book onto my computer
    It's an odm file if that helps
    And the website said it was compadable with iPods
    But when I hook my iPod up to the computer and view its "files and folders" then drop the file in nothing happens. It's the same if I try to drop it any where else.
    Srry about spelling

    I purchase 2 audiobooks on an iphone 4 and I synced them with a different computer and put them on the computer. I no longer have the phone to put on the main computer. How do i transfer songs from one computer to another?

    You can try using DROPBOX.
    Get them on both computers and drag and drop.
    It's free depending on how much you are transferring.

    If iTunes purchases then transfer them to your iTunes library:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    The sync to your iPhone. Make sure that in the Books pane in iTunes for the iPhone the box that says sync audio books is checked.

    If not iTunes purchased go the the support site for the purchases and see how to get them in your iTunes library.

  • Can you transfer an Kindle e-book from a computer to the ellipsis and will it work after transfer?

    I have purchased an e-book from Amazon and it downloaded to my computer.  Is there a way to move e-books between these two devices?
    If it can be moved can one still read the book on the new device or on both of them?

    Amazon allows Kindle books on multiple devices. The number of devices allowed may vary depending on the book, however I believe for most books it is up to 5 devices.
    You don't really transfer books from one device to another. You simply go to the Kindle store on the device you would like to read the book, look at your Kindle library on that device. If you have already purchased the book on your account, it will be listed in your available books. Simply click on the book and it will start downloading. If you already have the book on your limit of devices it will inform you of that fact. You can simply go to one of your other devices and delete the book from it and then download it on your new device. If you ONLY have the book on your computer and want to download it to a Kindle e-reader, you should have no problem with it being on too many devices, though.

  • Is it possible to transfer a completed iPhoto book from one Mac to another, keeping the entire book structure intact?

    I recently went on vacation and decided to use some of the free time to create some books of family photos. I transfered the entire iPhoto library of pictures from my my iMac to a MacBook which had never before been used for photos. The library transferred perfectly with all photos, albums, calendars, books, etc. intact. (Thank you, AirDrop!)
    I successfully created and ordered 3 different books of photos on the MacBook. Now I want to transfer just those 3 completed books back to the iMac for archiving. Can I use the "Export" command to do this? If so, should I use JPEG, TIFF, etc?
    I realize I could simply transfer the entire library file back from the MacBook back to the iMac, but I'd prefer not to take up all that disc space by having two photo libraries on my hard drive (and I'm chicken to delete the original iMac library).
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Bob Baker

    Yes you can move the book but not by exporting
    The book is just entries in the iPhoto database so the only way to transfer it is ot transfer the entire library it is in - you can make a "mini" library containing only one book to make the transfer easier - see Old Toad's tutorial #9 - http://oldtoadstutorials.net/No._9.html
    You also can save a PDF of the book and transfer that but you can not edit pr process it

  • How can I use mp4 audio files from my iTunes library in an Elements 10 slide show?

    How can I use mp4 audio files from my iTunes library in an Elements 10 slide show?

    AAC is Advanced Audio Coding.  Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD).  More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder).  Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
    You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button.  Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder.  After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version."  You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding.  Hopefully your phone will play that.

  • Can you transfer music and audio books between computers via home sharing?

    I just reformatted my iMac and would like to restore some music and an audio book from my MacBook Pro. Somehow, I got the audio book onto my MacBook Pro, which was originally downloaded to my iMac, but now I can't seem to transfer it back.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    I figured it out. Home sharing was not activated on the iMac, even though I could see both computers on each computer. I tried to transfer all my music from the iMac to my MacBook Pro before I wiped everything off the iMac, but couldn't figure it out. I with I knew that before I reformatted it. I do, however, however, have everything backed up on disks. iTunes is one of the most confusing programs I've ever used...

  • Is it possible to transfer an apple dev account from one apple id to a different apple id?

    I am 15 years old and I am thinking about setting up a apple dev account, but I can't do it on my apple ID since you have to be above the legal age of majority. So what I am wondering is that when I become the age of majority is it possible to transfer the apple dev account from my parents apple id to mine?
