IPhone 5s :: Audiobooks Option Under Music?
Dec 12, 2014
Just updated iPhone 5s to 8.1.2 and now there is no option under Music icon on the phone for Audiobooks, can't even sync in iTunes.
Have tried resetting to factory default, twice, and then restoring from iCloud backup that was taken prior to the update. Â

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

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.

It play find in iTunes on my computer, but when I sync to my iPod/iPhone I can not hear anything. It's the weirdest problem I have ever ran into.

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.

I'd really like to see some option for keeping the display on while using the Music player so that if I hear something interesting I don't necessarily have to handle the phone to find out what it is.Even if you only made this available under AC power that would be better than now.

How can I re-install music player in phone to get that option? I have lots of music in phone, but it cannot find anything. Everytime when I open Music Player, it search for music, then says nothing found.

Note that the Nokia website explicitly says that the Music Library should be refreshed after a sync.[URL]...

I updated to version 3.0.0.284, and there is no option to sync music! Is this intentional?
Also, Ovi doen't delete my music on my Nokia N8 phone (I thought maybe that will enable sync option again?) I press delete it opens up the thing where it says it is deleting and then when I refresh all my music just comes back!

I used to be able to create playlists on my iPhone by going into the Music app, the Playlists, then choosing +New Playlist. Â
That option doesn't exist anymore. When I go into playlists, only playlists I have synced to my phone from iTunes are there, no option to create a new one one the run. What happened to it?

My iPhone has stopped playing sound, the sound is on and it will ring out loud but when I go to play music you don't get the option to turn the sound on, I had been playing my music earlier on today and it worked but I then upgrade to 5.1.1 and it has now stopped working. Is there a way to go back to the upgrade that actually works?

I have used the iphone to listen to my audiobooks since I got my first iphone. only about 6 will sync. I can check them and it stays checked but they will not transfer. This included some of the ones that I have had on it before. I have even tried to sync all audio books, but only the same few will transfer. During transfer there is no mention of the checked books

I'd like to know the best way to transfer CD audiobooks to the Atrix. The method I've been using is to:
1) Rip the audiobook CD's to iTunes on my PC.
2) Setup playlist in iTunes for the audiobook,
3) Use MediaLink to transfer selected playlists to the microSD card on the Atrix.
One problem I've run into is that MediaLink seems "glitchy" in transferring the audiobooks to the phone. Sometimes it takes several or more attempts until the transfers complete successfully with MediaLink. Any less cumbersome method to transfer audiobooks to my Atrix (running Froyo 2.2.2).

I am trying to listen to an audiobook via my phone. The audiobook is in 45min mp3 files and I have used them fine from the computer and from other audio devices. However when I transfer them on to the 5130 I am only getting the first 4:50 of each file.Any ideas why this might be happening? and how to correct it so I can get back into my book?

I have successfully downloaded .mp3 audiobook files from the library via OverDrive Media console to my new Torch but I can't download books in .wma format.I see that older Blackberry devices do not support .wma files and they must be converted but I bought the 9800 because I thought it supported .wma files.I am running 6.0 bundle 278 (v6.0.0.141, platform 6.4.0.64)The error from OverDrive says that RIM does not support this file type.If it isn't supported, what 3rd party conversion tool can you recommend?

Tthe tittle sayz it all! I have music and audiobooks in mp3 format and when i choose TRACKS they apear all togheter. filtering them out by playlist isnt a option because i update my music frequently and i dont have time 2 insert any new song in a "MY MUSIC PLAYLIST". in the manual it sayz that when u select TRACKS it only shows you the music without the ringtones and that's not true.
