IPhone :: Fresh Restore To IOS 5.1.1 And My Audiobooks Now Dont Show Up - Even Though It Syncs Them
May 27, 2012
I have had similar issues in the past when I had to deal with itunes match. I havent even turned it on with the new restore, yet still my audio books will sync and transfer but dont show under my music app. Anyone else having this issue?
I upgraded my 3G 16gb to iOS4 (Gold Master candidate) about a week ago. That upgrade required a clean install, and I restored from my last backup. Unfortunately, even the core OS apps (iPod, Phone, Mail, etc.) run very slowly...Of course, this is essentially the final developer preview, not necessarily the final version released tomorrow, and no one has any great hopes of iOS4 working all that well on the 3G anyway.. That said, I can't help but think the core slowness is from some of the bloat inherent to all the current apps + the apps long deleted. Perhaps there are some of the SQL lite tables retained, etc. etc. I will not 'restore' when I get the iPhone 4 this week, but start with a clean slate..
I set all my contacts with pictures but when they call on lollipop 5.0.2 formatted through PC Companion and then again through the phone itselfs reset all doesn't show up. I even set it not to restore google app data...
My problem today has something to do with the images stored in my bb 9700. When I go into the media and pictures folder and go under all pictures, I have photos that I have already deleted that still come up there as thumbnails, but when I click on them, I am unable to view the pictures. However, when I go to picture folders, I don't see them anymore.
The problem is, I don't want to see those pictures that I have already deleted! It always says this file is marked as read only are you sure you want to delete them, I always click yes and it's not working, I went to properties to try and see if I could unmark them as read only or something but the only option is hidden. I tried opening it as a usb drive but those thumbnail pictures don't show up.
whenever i back up my bold, and then restore from the backup, none of my sound profiles restore back to the phone. this issue has been a problem ever since i got the phone,whether is was running 4.6, or after i upgraded to 5.0.0.411 what could cause this, and how could i fix it?
my i phone3gs has froze at the apple logo will go no further was trying to go to itunes to back up and restore and it will not even ackowlegde that i have a device
I have several audiobooks and for some reason, none of them will sync to my iPhone. When I look for them in the "audiobooks" section of my iPhone, nothing is there. I have "selected audiobooks" checked in iTunes just like allways. I've tried syncing while directly plugged into my Macbook and wirelessly to no avail.
I just don't understand how Apple handles audiobooks. I have a variety of books which have been either ripped from CDs or downloaded from Audible. The ripped books are in my library by following the steps below:
1. Insert disk; join tracks; hit import
2. When the whole book is on the hard drive, select all files; get info; change media type to audiobook
3. Create smart playlist with two criteria - 1) album name; 2) plays=0
When I plug in my phone, under the book tab, the playlist/book will appear in either "Audiobooks" or "Include Audiobooks from Playlists." Sometimes this will be in one; sometimes the other; sometimes both. Can't figure out a pattern.
When I synch my phone, my books often, but not always, show up under the Audiobook icon. Sometimes they show up under "Playlist" and then under "books."
how to make this more dependable? why itunes separates the two locations for audiobooks?
I have certain audiobooks that will NOT delete from my iphone.They all happen to be WMA audiobooks from Overdrive Media Library. When connecting my iphone to itunes, they were visible under "Books". I deleted them and they were removed (but only from books in iphone in itunes). [Side note- these audiobooks were never in my itunes library. Through Overdrive Media Console, they transfer directly to your iphone.]Upon searching on my iphone in the "spotlight search", the audiobooks still came up in search results, and i could still play them. So they are still trapped on my iphone! Interesgtingly, these trapped audiobooks are not located in any traceable location. They are no where in Music anywhere( ie artists, song, album, etc). And they are not in Audiobooks under the More section(not in compilations, not in podcasts, etc). They only come up in "spotlight search".
And the best part,after hours of trying to figure this out, I accidently wiped out all my music and other normal functioning audiobooks (i was experimenting with "Sync", thinking maybe that would help), and everything was wiped out, EXCEPT THE 3 WMA Audiobooks that i was trying to get rid off!They are still on my iphone- like cockroaches.
I have several audio books on my iPhone 5s; I am using iOS 7.1.1. I could find the books when I was using iPhone 4s. I have not been able to find them since migrating to the iPhone 5. The iTunes interface on my computer indicates that the books are on my iPhone. I searched for info on finding them, and was pointed to the Music app. I have not been able to find them there either.
After the software update this weekend, my audiobooks no longer sync to my iPhone 4. They used to no problem. I can still listen to them via the Audible App.
The iOS music app on my phone repeatedly is losing playback position for audiobooks. I go to the Music app > Audiobooks > BookTitle and get to a menu where I see part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and part 1 says, below the title/author listing, saysÂ
8:53:58Â 6hr 49 min leftÂ
And I touch the title to start it playing, and it shows the little red marker on the progress bar at about the right position for 2 hours having been played, and as often as not, there is a little flash and then the red marker is back at the far left side and it starts playing again at the beginning. Â
These are books from various sources--today's example was a Librivox download, others have been books on CD, and checking in iTunes verifies that they have been correctly coded as audiobooks and 'remember playback position' is automatically checked.Â
It's a PITA hunting through an 8 hour long recording with only the crude control of the little progress bar and 15 second skip forward/back to find the spot I left off.Â
It doesn't happen with the same titles in iTunes on the computer.Â
My iphoto library is getting full of duplicated pìctures thanks to my iPhone 4. Anytime I synced it, thouse photos download again. Any ideas?.Is there any way to deleted thouse duplicated items? I did a quick search and nothing came up (for the syncing )
I think I am the only person who wanted to see a To Do list that syncs with iCal and Exchange from 4.0, but again I'm disappointed! Are we ever likely to see this on the iPhone, I had a PDA with this functionality 10 years ago.
I recently upgraded to software version 5.1 for my iPhone 4 and version 10.6.0.40 for iTunes for Windows. Ever since then regardless of when I sync, even if it was one minute ago and no changes were made, either 188 or 193 songs sync and they seem to be the same ones. I tried restarting my computer as sometimes that seems to fix these little annoying glitches but that didn't work.
Info: iPhone 4, iOS 5.1, Windows 7. iTunes 10.6.0.40
Every evening I turn off my iPhone 4 to let it charge. In the morning when I turn it on I always heard the notification chimes of incoming texts, voicemails, and emails. Now I just get incoming texts and voicemail. I don't receive incoming emails from Hotmail until I go into my mailbox. It asks me if I want to connect to a wifi signal. I say cancel. It searches and then it brings up my new emails.
