Voice controling audio books and podcasts

Hi Folks:
As a Blind user of an iPhone 3GS, I am unable to extend voice control to audio books or podcasts. Am I doing something wrong or is this not available yet. If it is not available, can someone point me to where I can make this suggestion?
Thanks all over the place gang.

I too have run into this issue of voice control not recognizing my Podcast Playlist, hopefully it will be able to soon.

IPod Shuffle has started playing audio books and podcasts too fast.

iPod Shuffle has started playing audio books and podcasts too fast. What can be done?

Some other iPods (that are not shuffles) have an onboard setting to change the playback speed for some types of iTunes media, such as audiobooks. But a shuffle has no screen, to change such settings.
First, do this to reset the shuffle, if you have not already

If that does not help, you may want to do a Restore on the shuffle. The Restore button is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the shuffle, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings. The shuffle will be like it was when new, so this problem should be fixed.

HT2905 My itunes looks nothing like the examples in this tutorial. I do not have "display exact duplicates" or "date added". Can someone please help me remove duplicate songs? Also, I downloaded two audio books and they are showing up in my song list.

'Show duplicates' is now under the 'View' menu. To see the 'Date added' column go to 'View options' from the 'View' menu and check it in the section under 'Stats'.
Click an audiobook once to select it and hit command-i (Mac) or control-i (Windows). Go to the 'Options' tab and set 'Media Kind' to 'Audiobook'.

E-books and podcasts in french and NOT automatically in german in Switzerland

How to get e-books and podcasts in french and NOT automatically in german, even living in Switzerland, but in the french part of Switzerland?
In Switzerland, 70% speak german but there is a large part speaking french.
As I am living in the french part of Switzerland, I speak french and NOT german. How to change my ebook and podcast applications from german to french? I don't want to see a book or à podcast in german anymore on those apps. In french, please! Or possibly in english. But NOT in german.
Thank you in advance and kind regards.

This is a user to user forum. You are not addressing Apple here, but you can offer feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/.
However, Apple does not control the laungages that e-books or podcasts are published in for a given itunes store. That is up to the publisher. Perhaps you should reach out to them.

How do I upload audio books and music at the same time

I like listening to Audio Books as well as music but everytime I upload any music it deletes the audio books and when I upload audio books it deletes the music. How do I keep both on my iPhone without the other being deleted.
Cheers

Thats what I was doing wrong. Both music and books were ticked but I wasn't clicking on the books tab and ticking what I wanted to upload there.
All I need to do now is work out why iTunes stops working when I start typing to submit details gracenote.
Thanks

How to report an issue with Your iTunes Store purchase

HT4759 I bought an audio book and downloaded it to my iphone...i dropped the phone in water and i have received a different iphone when i go to itunes it doesnt show my purchase. I have the receipt number in my email how do i retrieve it??

I bought an audio book and downloaded it to my iphone...i dropped the phone in water and i have received a different iphone when i go to itunes it doesnt show my purchase. I have the receipt number in my email how do i retrieve it??

At the present time, audiobooks are a one-time download and cannot be redownloaded again for free. You can try contacting the iTunes store to see if they would grant you an exception: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

HT201306 i downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...where did it go?

I downloaded an itunes audio book and now can't find it anywhere...not in iTunes, not in iBooks...where did it go?

I had similar troubles on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7) with some audiobooks. Tried redownloading, reported problems, etc. nothing worked. Even more confusing, I could 'see' it in the On This IPhone in iTunes, but couldn't even see the audiobooks button in iTunes (on the phone).
I ended up searching for it by name, from my iPhone home screen (by swiping down, it may be called spotlight?), and where it reads 'Search this iPhone', I just started typing the name of the book, and there it was.
Not the most elegant solution, but so far all three of the books that I've bought are there.

Downloaded audio books and they came in duplicates how do I get a refund?

I was downloading an audio book and it downloaded in duplicates. How do I get credit and/or cancel? I don't know what I did to cause this.

Johnsherryq-
When you receive the confirmation eMail from the iTunes store, check to see if it charged you twice or just once. If it is not correct, there is a reply link under the item to "Report a Problem".

When listening to an audio book it freezes after about 10 minutes. I have done a soft reset, I have deleted the audio book and re- installed. My music plays with no problem.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Have downloaded audio book and it won't open

Have downloaded an audio book, and it won't open. It has a red dot next to it, but has downloaded.

Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

Restore the iTunes folder from <User's Music> in the backup to <User's Music> in the rebuilt computer, install iTunes. Job done.

I restored my iPad 2 from the iTunes backup but my music, audio books and iBooks are all missing.

I restored my iPad 2 from the iTunes backup but my music, audio books and iBooks are all missing. It seems only the Apps were restored and settings. Anyone else had this problem?

Oh and the bizarre thing was that when I opened iBooks for the first time after the restore it showed all the books in the open collection and then they vanished in front of my eyes!
