My Audio Books wont play

I purchased an audio book from Itunes. I manually dragged the newly downloaded file to my Ipod nano. The ipod updates. While the nano is connected, I can see the new audio book under the audio book play list in the nano, but when I discionnect the nano, the audio book does not appear for me to play. My other audio books appear and play with no problem

Are you disconnecting the iPod without ejecting it?
For more info, see this: Safely Disconnect iPod
Also, new conetnet is sometimes not synced to an iPod if it is being confused with other network devices. You might want to see this:

Ibook sync problems also audio books wont play correctly

I updated my ipad from 4.3 to 5.0.1 now I am unable to sync my books in one go with out the other folder showing in excess of 24gigs plus when I try to listen to an audio book ipod player will only play the first chapter then I need to select the next chapter and so on where as with 4.3 the chapters would just play one after the other I would be great ful of any help thank you.

Just I case any ones reading this I've found out that I'm not the only one who's suffering these faults with all of the apple products i.e. iPod touch, iPhones, and the iPads are all the same with this spurious other folder in iTunes when the devices are plugged in when I contacted apple care for help with this the so called technication tried to explain it was the iOS operating system that was accounting for the other folder when asked to explain how any operating system for a tablet or any device could be in the region of and above 20gigs he just went silent and it was hard to get another word from him he even refused to allow me to speak to his boss???
As for the audio books the only work round I have found is to use a free programme called Audacity 1.3 for windows you can also get this prog for the mac as well it allows you to stitch audio files together so in stead of having for example 3 large files for and audio book with say 5 chapters in each file you can stitch them all together as one large 15 chapter file it also allows you to adjust the meta data which is very handy.
Depending on how many chapters you have can take some time to do this but is so well worth it when if it was not done you could have an audio book with 150 chapters of 3 mins long which would mean every 3 mins you would have to select the next chapter to play or if it was all stitched together you just select remember last position in the iTunes file info and no more worrying about selecting the next chapter and if you don't listen to the audio book right the way through you can start off right where you left it last time.
I hope that this info has helped any one who like myself is having the same fault with their audio books not playing correctly.

Audio books wont play on Iphone 4S

Having trouble with audio books playing on phone 4S after transfer from itunes library. They show up in my content but wont play.

No idea why this would happen.
But try deleting all music via Settings> General> Usage> Music.
Just swipe to delete the Music app. It just deletes all contents of the music app.
Then resync music.

If anyone else knows why this is happening, please reply here.

Audio book chapters play randomly though shuffle is set to off

I have turned off the 'shuffle' option in the Music section, but my audio book(s) still play chapters in a random mode. From intro and chapter 1 to chapter 18 or 22. Also the reset procedure seems not to work. I wanted to try this to see if it would re-set the chapter issue, but I don't seem to be able to hold the wake/sleep touch and press the sound down button for 6 seconds as described in the manual. Any ideas?

Thank you for taking the time and trouble to reply, Santo!
I tried your suggestion, but it didn't seem to help, but then I noticed something that I hadn't noticed before. Half of the discs were titled "Disc XXX" and the other half were titled "Disk XXX". (Notice the spelling of "Disc" vs. "Disk".) Once I made the spelling uniform, everything was fine.
Thanks again!

How do I get audio books to play in proper Ch/sub-chapter sequence

I listen to a lot of audio books and I've found the chapters, and especially sub-chapters, often do not play in the same sequence found on the CD I've purchased. Is there something I'm missing when I import them or must I continue to manually go back a number the tracks or rename the track titles to begin with numbers (e.g. 01_Chapter 1: The Premise of a Blue Sky - Preface, 02_The Premise of a Blue Sky: Night-time Blue, etc., etc.,)?
Thank you

The Alchemy plugin from CamelAudio is no longer available. You can use Szforzando from Plogue. First install szforzando. Then start Garageband and the plugin will be available. (If you had GarageBand open when you installed szforzando, close it and re-open.) To open the plugin and use it on a track, follow these steps.
1.Select the track to use
2. Open the Smart Controls
3. Click the Inspector button (with an "i" on it).
4. Below "Keyboard Sensitivity," click Plugins. You may have scroll the window to see it, or expand the window.
5. Select Instrument/All Instruments/Plogue Art et Technologie/szforzando/stereo. The plugin will open.
6. Click the "File" window, which should say "empty." A menu pops up with three options: import, empty, reload. Select import.
7. Navigate in your file system to an sfz. file and open.
8. Now the sfz sounds should play through the GarageBand controller, e.g, command-K keyboard.

Audio books not play

Help, I downloaded an audio book to my computer and copied it to my MUVO TX FM but it will not play book. I first had it in separate file, then in music file, then in audio file. Each time I try to play it, the display shows that I am in the file but it will not play. I've also tried all possible play modes..still nothing. Any sugestions?

SSR, I figured it out this morning. Here are the details: I downloaded an audiobook from netlibrary onto my computer. It comes in WMA format. I then copy-pasted it into a folder I created called books.
wee, the durned thing wouldn't play. I saw somewhere, maybe on this board that media player was the path to file transfer so I figured out how to us it and viola, through the magical art of synchronization, the WMA file works even when I moved the file into the book folder.
My next querie is this: How do I save the spot in the book so that when I turn off the devise or move balk and forth from my music files I dont loose my place?

Audio books wont move from music libary

if i rip a audio book from cd and import into itunes. there seems to be no way to move it into the audio book libary. can anyone help

I have the same issue, although I am on a Mac. The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane is in my music library even though I set its 'info' to Audiobook. I have 3 audiobooks in the Audiobook section of iTunes that do not show up in my music library, but their info is set the same way as the Tulane files.

Audio books wont go on ipod

Downloading audio books from Librivox, using 64 Kbps MP3 Zip, Choose Save As, Direct book to go into Music, ITunes file. Book is on HD Win7. on ipod:
"on this ipod is empty" little arrow on left hand side shows playlists I made for these books, there are "songs" within the playlists, but my ipod is still empty. have re started and resinked many times, won't transfer for real and appear.

I also cannot sync my audible books onto my IPOD classic itunes v9.2 - it will sync the music/books from itunes store but all of my audible book downloads have disappeared from my ipod. They are on the itune account but simply will not download to my IPOD. Microsoft is also reporting that itunes does not have a microsoft digital signature and so my pc refuses to upgrade v9.2 with CD/DVD devices.I really hate it when Apple does these upgrades without doing full beta testing for all products. I did restore my IPOD and I also uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes but v9.2 will not co-ooperate. Does anyone have a solution out there?

Audio Books Wont show up in audio books on my ipod.

Why does my audiobooks show up in Audio books in Itunes,but shows up in music on my ipod. Is ther any way I can straighten this out. I have tried everything, is there an issue with this, or can it be fixed by doing something simple.

Look at the file extension of one of the audiobooks you're talking about. If it ends with *.m4p then it reads as music in the Ipod. Follow the path "MyDocument, MyMusic, ITunes and in your ITunes folder change the extension to *.m4b then reload it into your Ipod. That should do the trick. I downloaded a ton of "This American Life" from ITunes and that was the problem.

Audio book not play

Any audiobook frim iTunes Store will install on my iPod nano but it will not play. The Aduiobooks icon is there and the book title is there but when I select to start an icon shows up momentarily and disappears. But the book will NOT start.
This problem started when I had 2 audiobooks on my iPod and deleted one of them (menu delete function).
I am going to try a Reset to Factory Settings to see if that will fix the problem.

So the audiobook downloaded to the Books library category in iTunes and when you double click on it to play it nothing happens? If so, delete the audiobook and try redownloading it.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Once we can get it to play in iTunes, we can then set it up to sync to the Shuffle.

Help! My new X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook wont play in 5

Hey! Just bought Logitech Z-5500 and X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook but I've been wondering why the heck I can't choice 5. Only 2./2.0 and headphones? I've also noticed that my read speakers isn't playing so much as the front in most of the songs I hear? Is it because I need that upgrade kit for analog cables? But what If i buy that upgrade kit, and I still use optical cable, do I need to use the analog surround cables to get 5. on optical? Or what?

Hi there Wulffez?In answer to your second question, all surround sound speakers play more in the front than the back speakers as the front speakers are for the main sound and the back speakers are just for background noise and to make you feel like the music/ sound is all around you. If it helps my speakers do this too and i imagine everyone elses surround sound speakers do it as well?(Also you will probably need digital surround cables, but i am not 00% certain)?Hope this helpssupernerd59

Apple loops audio files wont play

I can listen to previews of the loops but when I drag them to the arrange area, I hear nothing. I can see that they are working but cant hear anything. The green instrument apple loops work fine, its only the blue ones that dont work. I also cant hear anything that has been recorded using a usb mic. I have everything set up the way the manual tells me too, and it will record and I can see that it is playing i just cant hear it. How do I fix this problem. I have Logic Pro 9 and Snow Leopard.

I have not changed any settings on my own as I am very new to the whole music recording thing and have no idea how to get technical. All I have done is installed the program and followed the "try this" in the getting started manual. It seemed to work just fine the first time I put something together. I restarted my computer because it was seeming extraordinarily slow. When I reopened logic and attempted to create another beat only the green loops could be heard. Although you could see the meters moving on the blue ones no sound could be heard through either the built in speakers or headphones as I tried both. I can still click on the blue loops while they are in the loops library and I hear them just fine. As soon as they are dragged into the arrange area, I hear nothing.
