Using a Nano

rjcchan · 10-29-2015, 04:09 PM

i presently use iTunes to mange my Audible books..make playlists and put them on my Nano 4(i think that is what it is). From what i read around here i am considerably out of date but i may be forced into an upgrade soon. My questions:

1. How do people (does anyone) get Audible books on a Nano if they are no longer recognized by iTunes?

2. Do the newer Nano's play Audiblebooks?

All of my audible audiobooks are still in iTunes. I think you'll be able to transfer them to your Nano just fine. I suspect it's only the smart devices where the audible books are available through iBooks.

I use media monkey. There is a portable version as well.

My mom's nano4 works fine with Audible and iTunes. Sometimes it objects to really long files. You can download a split file if you need to, but usually it means your nano is due for a reset because its brains are getting bungled. I believe only the nano 1 will be losing support partly due to the recall 4years ago.

I no longer have access to the 3 audio books I bought through iTunes which is why I never bought through them again. I remove DRM from Audible books for the same reason I do it for e-books. Playing on different devices and archiving should my purchases disappear from the catalog.

I re-read. If your audio books are no longer installing on iTunes, contact tech support at audible.
