Hi Donna, Just a few additions to Daniel's remarks. You can make things a little more efficient if you copy your Audible files (which can be in an Audible Downloads folder) to your iTunes Music folder, which you'll find in your account under "Music/iTunes/iTunes Music". While you don't actually need to download a book, that's a good way to start authorization. Otherwise you would be prompted to authorize your account the first time you tried to play one of the Audible files you transfer to your Mac. If you ever need to de-authorize your Mac's Audible account, for example, if you upgrade your computer or before you send your Computer in for service (in case they replace a logic board or other element that wipes out your authorization record), you can find a "Deauthorize Audible account …" option in the Advanced menu on the iTunes menu bar.
I'm guessing that you used the Audible Downloads Manager on your Windows PC? Here's a link to the Audible Customer help page on "Everything iPod and iTunes for Audible Content (Mac)" in case you have further questions: http://audible.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3458 On the Mac, downloaded files go to your Downloads folder. If you play or open an Audible file it should get added to your iTunes library -- usually, by being copied to that location.
