Hi Mary: The items are actually checked by default. You would only have to uncheck items you don't want to sync. Carolyn H On Jan 3, 2011, at 10:40 PM, Mary Otten wrote: > Hi Ricardo, > If I understand what you're saying, you have to manually check all the music > and media you want on your I-d

Hi Mary, the default is that everything is checked. So, rather than having to check thousands of items, you simply have to uncheck those you don't want. I've only begun playing with this, but I do think it's faster. best, Donna On Jan 4, 2011, at 12:40 AM, Mary Otten wrote: > Hi Ricardo, > If

Hi Mary, With the method I suggested, there is no problems typing in a book title or author so it would speed up your search. But no. I don't manually have to add content. That is another setting all together under the summary tab. I actually have a bunch of playlists I've created checked t

Hi Ricardo, If I understand what you're saying, you have to manually check all the music and media you want on your I-device, right? So you don't have any artists or playlists checked, meaning you have to check each item manually? Given that my original complaint with the audio books was that I

Hi Mary, Under the summary tab, I have the sync only checked songs and video checked. So then I can then select sync all books and sync all audio books under the books tab. With this done, I can go to the books playlist on iTunes in the sources table, navigate to the books table and interac

Hi James, I had several books in the audible app and deleted one. That resulted in a blank screen, and even after I dismissed the app via the app switcher, then reopened it, I still got just the blank screen with no visible controls. The only way to get anywhere was to delete the app, which caus

I wonder what is causing problems wit deleting books in the audible app? It sounds like you only have one book in there when you try to delete it, or do you have a lot of them? I wonder if deleting has become a probem in the latest version? I have deleted books out of previous versions just fine.

Perhaps I didn't make myself clear. When you attach an IPod to the Mac, you get that bunch of tabs, summary, music, books etc. If I select the books tab, I then have two tables, one of which has my Ibooks in it, the other of which has audible books in it. There is no list view possible in this s

Hello all. I'm cross posting to Mac and IPhone because my question concerns a better way to get books from Itunes on a Mac to the IPod. I have a very large audible library, and it use to be possible to narrow the available choices for synching by typing into the search box some portion of the ti
