Audio books are in 2 places on iTunes

A summarized set of audio books are in my iTunes Playlist "On My Device', those who would be those that I recently added. A more complete list, more than 700 books, are included in the summary of the topic audiobooks to iTunes. Unfortunately, when I check the books I want to download on my iPod, it accesses books from two sources and one in the Audible icon and the other place in the icon the playlist of music on my iPod.

Using Win7, v64, HPTouchSmart610.  iTunes 12.0.12.6 iPod Nano

I was wondering if my download folder is directing the iTunes Media incorrectly, that happened when we converted the last pc. I had to correct all these books by hand (which was tedious, but necessary).  Also look for iPad and iPhone, but do not use those 5 sec sound

This problem has arisen in the last three months.  (BTW, we've never used "Sync only checked songs and videos" and create Playlists to manage content).

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Where an asset appears in iTunes is determined by the media Type setting for each item.  Audio files from an external source (imported into iTunes) can get imported as songs (music), as iTunes does not know that they are audio books.  I do not understand your description of the problem, but if some of your audio books in your library of iTunes, not your library of books music audio iTunes, that's the problem.  And they will also appear on the iPod as songs, when synchronized.

If you have a large number of audio books that appear in your library iTunes music, a convenient way to fix them all at the same time is to create a new playlist and add all the audio books (which are currently considered songs) to the playlist.  In the playlist, select any item and do a select all (Ctrl-A keyboard OR menu bar Edition-> select All).  Right-click on the selection and information.  On the window information from several element, click the Options tab.  Change media kind in audiobook, then OK.  All selected items should now appear in your audiobooks to iTunes library.

NOTE: Depending on how sync you media on your iPod, you may need to remove affected audio books on your iPod first and then re - add (after they are ordered by iTunes as audio books).

If you are not able to change the Type of media, please after return.

  • Sort order for multi-CD audio books

    Hello world. I read through some past discussions on the sorting of tracks and albums and have not been able to solve my problem. I have a 12 CD Audiobook; each CD has 99 tracks (ugh). All are taken from my computer and copied on a 8 GB MicroSDHC card. Sorry for the long post; hoping to capture as much detail as possible. My OS is Win XP. It is a rocket 4 GB with the troublesome file stored on 8 GB MicroSDHC card. Rocket is set to MTP and I moved the files via Windows Explorer... trained on my hard drive to the SDHC card (I did this twice; once while he was in the rocket and once while it is in the card reader).

    I used MP3Tag as follows:

    • File name AND title are on: book title disc 01 track 01, sequential numbering up to book title 01 99 of track record. Then we begin with the title of the book disc 02 track 01, etc all the way as a book drive 12 track 99
    • In MP3Tag, I used the Auto numbering Assistant to number the headings, including leading zeros, as 0001/1188 (this change has been made while the card was in the "rocket"; the first passage to the numbering on the hard disk, added only one zero, and I thought that could be the problem, so I ran the wiz autodial again while the card was in the "rocket").
    • Contributing artist, artist and Album name are the SAME (no drive included number) for each 12 discs... use MP3Tag to achieve
    • Removed the YEAR and the DISCNUMBER using MP3Tag.
    • All tracks are marked by the kind of AUDIO book (again using MP3Tag). They appear in the correct order on the hard drive of my computer, and read the SD via Windows Explorer, they appear in the correct order. However, when I browse audio books on my rocket, the sort order is out of whack. Systematically, it starts with title of book disc 11 track 11, is moving forward to drive 12, 99 of track, then disc 01, track 01. The rest seems to be in the right order.
    • Shots from the top of the window of MP3Tag, the file (in order) as the "rocket" 'sees' the first track (1001 to follow in the order, so it is important) screen my choices of dialogue can be seen here:

    Other audio books are marked in this way and appear in the correct order... but none of the others has more than 9 discs. Thanks for all the ideas. It drives me crazy! : PEI

    Just an update... as suggested by miltst, I made some changes on the base (on my HD) and then copied to the SD card files. The only changes I made were to change the numbering DO NOT track to track the total number of titles; I even added zeros. Once I moved their map SD, the sort order is correct. Hooray! Don't know what did - change the HD or changing the numbering of the beaches, but whatever it is, it works.

    Thank you!

  • iTunes deleted 12.5.1.21 options of reading audio books

    Just updated iTunes to version 12.4.3.1 on Windows 10 PC 12.5.1.21

    Before the update, there are two options for reading audio books: remember the playback position and jump when brewing.  (to find these, select Get info on the audio book and choose the tab options).

    In the new update, these two check boxes have been removed. I hope that the answer is because there is little (or not) users who wouldn't never want these options, and the developers of iTunes just hardcoded these options in the metadata file.

    So what is the reason for their removal? If the options are always available at the place where have they been moved?

    I see these options, but cannot change them and the media type is set to Audiobook. Setting Media type for music and applying, then find the article, options and change the type of media to Audiobook works but is a bit lengthy. Use iTunes Feedback or Apple Bug Reporter to Apple let know.

  • HELP PLEASE! I lost about 400 GB of MP4 (film and audio book) using Chkdsk files. He repaired broken sectors/files regardless, but it changed the extentions. How can I find new extensions? they are there, but I don't know how to find them.

    I have Vista Home Premium. I have a huge media collection for my ipod. I save all my video files and files on an external hard drive (my book 500 GB) audiobook while they clutter up my internal drive and so I can store them where my internal drive has failed somehow... Well I got the opposite happens. I started to get my video files would not open in their records. I ran Chkdsk utility to "fix" the files. When the program has finished running he had a Msg: something has changed the names of files and everything I was supposed to go to the files and the rear switch (as far as I can remember... I don't wear SPECIAL attention for the MSG that I thought it was normal and the program would take me to the files when it was done... ERROR. All desktop shortcuts no longer find files directly by going to my computer, then by looking at the HD I cannot find the files.  I used the program REcuva file hippo and it restores the few files that have been deleted out of the dirve and allowed to see some of the video files and audio books (but no tag info remained on the recovered files. I had to so I would like to know what they rename them). Other than these few files... less than 20 I t help either. Records that they are still there, but it asks me to open files with a program from a list of choices and not of the program draw files. (the choice to choose this high program open this type of file is also blacked out). Also when I run the cursor over the records of the size of the files do not match wat I know should be in the files. But if I just look at the my computer screen and run the cursor over the icon of the letter itself it show that there is 435 + GB hard disk info and 50 + GB of space left on it.
    A few questions:
    1. is it possible to see all the possible msg that the command chkdsk can generate so I can find that he gave me when he fixed my files?
    2 - How can I find these files if I don't know the extensions I'm looking for? they were for quicktime mp4 files, but I don't know now.
    3 - If the drive to my drive internal and try to list the backup files is located on the drive where I'd start trying to open the files?
    4 do I just need to cut my losses and reformat the hard disk, crying over 2 years, he took me to build the library and start over again >? (at least I kept some of my files from itunes library since itune on DVD about 1.5 years ago (about 300 GB of data there))
    And by the way the reader is set up to the FAT 32 format, that I did not know until this all happened.

    Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / View and uncheck Hide extensions for known file types.  You should also check the box to see the system and hidden files while you're there.  This should show you the extensions of all files if that is the problem.  You can then rename the files for extensions are associated with a program that will open and read the files (you may need to experiment first with some programs to find one that works and an extension that works if they have been changed).  I don't know any way to do this for all files at once - they will have to be renamed individually (yes - I realize counts the number of files involved, but I know of no program in Vista or even a 3rd party program that will change the extensions for a group of files at a time - you can check for yourself on www.tucows.com and www.download.com).

    Desktop Shortcuts no longer work because either the file type of the source file has changed and the shortcut does not open the file, or because the file has been moved and the shortcut can not find the path.  You should be able to check the path by finding files (whatever they are now called) and see if they are in the same directories in path as they were before this happened.  I think it's because the source file works more correctly because of the extension (or corruption).

    Recuva to recover lost or deleted files - not the files that are on the system (and you won't not solve your problem by deleting them and then use Recuva to recover because it sounds like the problem is with the extensions and Recuva is not going to be able to correct it (it is not part of his program)).

    There's no list of ALL possible messages that might be generated by chkdsk I know.  Here is an article on the chkdsk command works in XP and some messages it generates - but far from everything and nothing look like the one you receive (and it works essentially the same under Vista): http://www.isd518.net/District/TechDir/Help/Chkdsk.htm.

    The backup on your internal hard disk drive will not solve the problem - just move it.  The 'damage' to the files are already done a backup now will not solve anything.  The fact that the drive is set up in format FAT32 is not the question (and probably not the question in the first place is) and change to NTFS now is not going to solve the problem (although you can do that after all this has been resolved).

    I won't tell you to cut your losses - this is a pretty drastic step and there may still be other options (although I don't know myself).  You can take the reader to a recovery expert data (NOT Geek Squad or one of these other major centres to store) which may be able to recover some, most, or all files.  It will be expensive and only you can decide if it's worth the cost.  These people usually the game fee and do not offer a guarantee of recovery - even if they don't recover anything you always pay.  The decision is yours.

    If none of this works, transfer your question in images and videos Forum at: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistapictures/threads where people who specialize in issues related to the video may be able to help with your problem, since it's video files.

  • 12.3.3.17 iTunes cannot sync audio books

    I installed iTunes to 12.3.3.17 on Windows 7 and all my music and audio books have disappeared. Physical files are still there. I've been using 'Add folder to library' to get some audio books back and they are now visible in the library. But they do not appear under iPod > settings, so I have no way to sync with my iPod nano. Any ideas?

Now I have most of my music and audio books loaded, but problem is the same, I can't sync anything on iPod or iPhone, because in iPod > settings > audiobooks, rght tile shows no books. If I try to sync it will erase all of the remaining books from my iPod (or iPhone).

  • Update of iTunes. IPod sync and lost everything but 10 audio books, passed to Touch, four selected works, only on the Touch and not the selected one. Afraid to synchronize other devices that I'll lose everything. ITUNES update BUG

    I updated iTunes 10 Windows a few days ago. I sat to continue listening to an audiobook on my iPod. 110 audio books in sync with the iPod, there are now 10 and not that I want to listen to. I opted for a touch and tried to load the book on that. There are four books selected for the touch. The book I want to not sync and there is only one book on the Touch.  This book is not all the book selected for synchronization.  I am afraid now to sync one of my other devices to iTunes because I'm afraid I might lose even more data.

    Of course, there is a bug in the new update iTunes 12.3.3.17.  Help, please.

    Are audio books in your library? If it is not in your library can see you in your media folder? Your library authorized the Apple ID is used to buy the books? The upgrade of Windows can break the record of the permission on the computer.

  • Audio book bought and do not see it in iTunes

    I bought an audio book on my iPhone 4s, but now I want to hear on my macbook pro. However, it is not appear in my library of audio books. I tried 'check' downloads available, but it does not work. I tried buying the book again (from my macbook pro), but it says that I already bought the book. I tried to click ok anyway and he said something like "are you sure" because he gave me a warning that I have copies of the same audiobook. Then... How to make it to my macbook pro without having to buy new?

    Thank you

  • iTunes 12.4 does not display audio books when I select Watch books

    The kind of media drop-down menu has only a selection of books. It shows my books. When I do a search for one of my books, he shows up and then all of my audio books appear. I return to the music and then go back to the books and audio books have disappeared. Discover the audiobooks menu (ctrl + 6) has the same behavior.

    Select the source of books in your library, and then change the list of sections that appear. The Word change appears when you place the cursor in the right place. Click to make changes, and then click done when finished. Allowing audiobooks should fix things for you.

  • Cannot advance from .wma to .wma file when the files are contained in the audio books folder

    I have a few low bitrate of the things the word .wma files and load them into the folder of audio books of the Clip +.  I did this because these files seemed to be closer to an audio book than music.  I loaded the MSC mode.  There is no DRM on the .wma files.  I created a playlist .m3u files.  When I played them back, I couldn't jump between these .wma tracks.  I could fast forward and rewind through them but not to jump.  I thought it was really strange.

    I ended up moving these files in the audio books folder in the music folder, and I could jump between tracks very well during playback.

    I have to admit that I don't know a lot about audio books and I did a google search and I don't seem to find anything that could prevent or discourage people from being able to skip between tracks on when you listen to an audiobook.

    Someone knows what's going on here or can see this problem themselves?  I'm not supposed to be able to jump between tracks in the audio books folder?

    Thanks for your help.

    If you press the [down] key during playback and look at the settings, is chapter mode (Ch Mode) on or off?

    If set to off, you must pause and hold the left/right button to skip tracks (I think that the purpose of this measure is to avoid accidentally changing track when you wanted to only go fast forward or rewind).

    You can set Ch. Mode = we and get the behavior you expected, but it could move through a tedious track.
