Overdrive Media Console for IPod

I have a 2nd generation Ipod toubh 9GB. I have been able to download books from my library straight to the Ipod via Overdrive Media Console. I have been able to download and play the books just fine. The only thing is that no matter which book I am listening to playback stutters and stops continuously after about 15 mins. I wrote Overdrive support and they told me to reboot my Ipod. I have done this several times but to no avail.  I thought it may be that snooze was enable so I tried to check snooze for 90 mins but still after 15 mins playback stops and my place is not saved either.  I am wondering if anyone else has encoutered this problem.
Thank you,

yes, yes, and yes. Now it's worse. when the display goes in stand by it shuts down. I am now installing the latest iphone version and seeing if it helps. I have gone to getting audible books.
What's changed is that i got an ipad and kindle and am syncing between devices for books from amazon.
On i side note why i am not running latest version of iphone. I stayed away from syncing or upgrading the iphone from laptop because of previously losing all data. Apples  answer was that I should use more than their itunes software for backup since they don't maintain multiple versions. (during version upgrade the backup it took was corrupted thereby losing data of last good backup) so any istore app that had data was lost.

  • Using Overdrive Media Console for iPad

    I would like to download audiobooks from my public library that has an Overdrive Media contract. I see an Overdrive app in the ITunes store for IPhone.
    Do I download the Overdrive Media COnsole for Mac to my iMac and then go through iTunes to get the MP3 files on my iPad?
    Or do I download the Overdrive Media Console for iPhone to my iPad?
    Thanks - I am new to all of this.

    The app gives you instructions to browse to the Overdrive site and put in your Zip Code. You can do this from Safari on the iPad. When you find your local library, you will be asked to log in with your Library Card and PIN. When you select compatible content, the Overdrive app will automatically launch, where it will give you the ability to download content segments, or even all segments. It will also help you keep track of when the book will expire etc. The books are broken up into many segments so that you can manage how much content is stored on your iPad. I did this just this morning, and downloaded 8 of 38 segments of the book 2666.

    It now appears that MP3s downloaded via ODM cannot be played by the Blackberry player whereas the BB player worked with the older devices running the non-Android version of Overdrive Media Console. Hopefull BB will correct this problem soon with an update.

  • Overdrive Media Player for Ipod Classic late 2009

    Hi
    I am unable to transfer from Overdrive Media Player even though I have followed the instructions. It keeps telling me it is unable to connect and that iTunesw v9.02 or newer (I have version 10) is required. I have also enabled manually manage music and videos. When I cancel the request it tells me that no portable device can be found yet it is in iTunes and as a separate drive. Any ideas please

    Effectively, Apple have told you that your iPod is beyond economic repair. In other words, it will cost more than £102.44 to repair. They know that as soon as they realise that it has been water damaged, so that's why they haven't looked at it (or rather, haven't looked any further than the water indicator).
    The problem is that water gets in everywhere, and the electricity from the battery causes short-circuits, which damage components, so it's often impossible to tell which bits work and which bits don't. Even more difficult is when a component works sometimes but not others. When that happens, you have an intermittent problem, that comes and goes without warning. Such an iPod would simply be unreliable and you would find it very irritating.
    As soemone who has had to deal with the recent flooding in the UK, I can confirm that the water does terrible damage to electronics. In our case, the incredibly fine silt (muck) that went with the floods is almost impossible to remove from the outside of things, let alone the inside.
    I think it's time to buy a new iPod.

  • After using Overdrive Media Console for Mac to listen to book on my iPod, my iPod won't work!

    The book went on my iPod and played fine. BUT after trying to update my podcasts and put on more books (from Audible.com) I found that NOTHING would go back on my IPod. I reformatted it, and now I have my music, but only some of my books, and NONE of my podcasts. I then deleted the program (and the book) and reformatted AGAIN. Now I have a bit more of my previous stuff, but it still won't let me add all my books (says the iPod is read only, not write, even tho I have changed the settings) and I can't get ANY podcasts back on it. The message says "iPod is already in use."
    I have unchecked the manage updates manually, and the box for using it as a storage device. This has been a NIGHTMARE. I have used an iPod for years--and have three different ones, and none of them will play right since the program messed with my iTunes. I have asked the librarians and no one seems to be familiar with the Mac version. They are all looking at me like I have never used an iPod or a computer and just am not understanding how to upload books. I have deleted the program, and the books, as I said, but maybe there is something still remaining? I have used epub books on my touch with no problem, but the audio/MP3 book on my iPod classic is what has created this problem. UGH!! NEVER AGAIN!!
    Any ideas?? PLEASE??

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Can not find WMA files in iTunes, for borrowing library books with Overdrive Media Console

    I have borrowed audiobooks from the library, using iTunes and Overdrive Media Console for years.  some months ago, I was suddenly unable to.  thought it was my old computer, so bought a new one.  took weeks to be able to get an upgrade from Windows, and when I was finally able to thought my troubles were over.
    but, no,  now the Overdrive Media says it can not connect to iTunes.  someone at Overdrive said iTunes had to be the default player for WMA files, but I can not figure out how to make that happen, since there is nothing that looks like 'WMA files' anywhere on my computer.  any advice?  I can't afford to purchase audiobooks, and I really miss being able to borrow from the library.  this new computer has Windows 8 OS

    There is a OneClickdigital ereader available in the App Store. Download that to your iPod to read pdfs and books from the library. And you might need to download the OneClickdigital eaudio player to listen to audiobooks from the library. Once both are downloaded sync you iPod again to transfer them.

  • Overdrive Media Console app for old ipod touch with ios 4.2.1

    A friend recently gave me an "old" ipod touch. According to my itunes software, Its os is now up to date with version 4.2.1. I want to download the app for Overdrive Media Console, but current version 4.6.2 of Overdrive requires requires ios 4.3. Is there a way to download an earlier version of the app that will work with my ipod touch? Thanks for your reply.

    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

  • IPod Touch, version 4.2.1--Overdrive Media Console

    I want to listen to audiobooks from my local library on my iPod.  I have downloaded Overdrive Media Console to my iMac (iTunes).  The icons show that a particular book will play on an iPod (but not an iMac???).  It says my version of the Console doesn't support WMA audiobooks.  I'm at a total loss.  Anybody know if I'm trying to do something I just cannot do.  Thank you very much.

    Thank you!  I am new to this tech stuff and though I've had an iMac for two years, I don't really know how to use this support community easily.  Before I posted my request, I did look through quite a few posts, but didn't find anything.  Clearly, there is a LOT on the Overdrive Media Console.  Guess I need to figure out how to look for specific topics.  So much these days assumes a basic knowledge of how computers work and so I spend an inordinate amount of time searching for understanding.   Again, thank  you--it seems there ARE problems with downloading audiobooks to iPods!

  • I just installed the latest version of iTunes to my windows 8 computer.  I was downloading audiobooks through overdrive media console just fine until I downloaded this new version. It says it has been transferred but it's not in my iPod. Help!

    I just installed the latest version of iTunes on my windows 8 computer.  I was trying to transfer an audiobook I downloaded through overdrive media console to my iPod nano. Overdrive says it was transferred successfully, but it is not in my iPod.  I have had no problems transferring audiobooks until I downloaded this new version.  Help!

    I just realized that part of my post got cut off.  There was a message that i could not connect to the Apple store (and my genius stopped running). 

  • I can't download library book through Overdrive Media to my IPod Touch. It won't transfer from Itunes since new update for the icloud

    I've not had a problem before, but since the new update for Itunes, I can't download library books through Overdrive Media to my Ipod touch.  It transfers to Itunes but shows a message on my IPod that it can't sync.

    I don't recall updating recently, but tonight I found I had the same problem.  However, if I plugged my ipod in, it then gave me the option to transfer to just ipod, or library and ipod.  However, that raises other problems, because you know we have to change these over from music to audiobooks.  Also, ITunes is freezing on me, even after doing a fix reinstall.  It looks like it's connecting to the store and I have to end task it.  Also, some freaking crap is going on with my ipod.  I "lost" my audiobook option I had locked to the bottom of my page.  Also, all the other music I had on my ipod is gone, wasn't much as I use this mostly to listen to audiobooks.  But the only music album there is the free U2 one Apple gave out a while back.  So I'm in it even worse than you right now as I have a 2 day trip planned and was adding more books to my selection, to listen while driving.  But try what I told you above.  If it does put it on your ipod, you can delete it and "fix" the info in iTunes, then transfer it back.
