Have you logged out, then back in? I wonder if this would fix it, at least for a while.

Richard, I tried all of your good suggestions and so far nothing has worked. Mary, I agree with you completely all of the problems that you describe are exactly what is happening to me. I asked it to download a book a lot of times it will just say waiting, waiting waiting and then sometimes I can go back in and open up the app and the title will appear but when I open it, there is nothing there in the book will not read. I am so frustrated with the way. This app is going and I too. I’m glad that I bought it before it turned into the subscription model. It was way better when Winston ran it. I have reached out to the new people and they don’t even get back to me.  I am not sure what to try next.

I don’t download large audio files. I do have a few MP threes, but nothing like that has been downloaded by me in a very long time. So, these are books from bookshare. So I expect that when it says download complete, it’s there. So they need to fix it. I thought they had it fixed after an update a few months ago. But it didn’t last.

for the file to kind of process and become available.  If I don't,
I'll hear unavailable and the name of my zipped file.  I'm talking
about audio dramas, that are 3 or more gigs in size.  Voice dream

very well, and having a great selection of text to speech voices is
very nice!!!!

It may well be because I have a big Voice Dream library. But if it says
download complete, which it always does, I feel like I should be able to go
into my library and see it’s there. Not unavailable. Why is it unavailable?
And why God‘s name, since I have iCloud Sync enabled on both of my devices,
why doesn’t that work? I don’t even open it on my phone anymore because
there’s so many books that I’ve downloaded to my iPad that I know absolutely
if I open my phone there’s going to be a massive problem. So I suppose I
should just not have my phone answering with iCloud anymore. But then what
do I do when I finally get a new phone  Probably next year? I just wish
these people would get into the guts of this thing and fix it.

I’m still having issues with Voice Dream downloading, saying it’s done, and
stuff not being available. And then for whatever reason, it eventually
becomes available. This was not the case before. I know I have a large
library. But this is ridiculous. I thought they had fixed it. But now it’s
just erratic as hell. I can pretty much count on downloading something on my
iPad which is the fastest device I have, a mini six, it says it’s
downloaded. I go there and they always say unavailable. And there’s a
guessing game as to how I can magically make it become available. I don’t
know who these folks are who took this over. But they’ve still got a
problem. Before they add new features like new file types etc., I wish to
God they would fix the problem they have with the basic download and hey
this should be available right now, shouldn’t it? I’ve given up with my
iPhone. I have a Voice Dream library on my iPhone and my iPad mini six. But
the iPhone just doesn’t catch up ever. So I don’t open it ever. Stupid huh?
I wish Winston had kept the app. These guys don’t know what they’re doing,
or maybe they do, but then they should explain this stupid download problem.
At least I’m not one of the poor suckers that has to keep paying for this
app. I wouldn’t want to pay for it in the current state it’s in. Not as a
newbie.

I would check your Bookshare settings and especially your internet
connection.

Do you have lots of apps open on your device?

If so, close them out of the app switcher.

Subject: Voicedream not downloading book share books.



Hi, over the last week or so I have been noticing that every time I try to
add a title to my book share library through Voice Dream Reeder I keep
getting a continuous message that says “waiting“. I have closed down the app
and reopened it again and still those books all just seem to be stuck there
and it keeps saying waiting and they will not download. Any suggestions? Is
anyone else experiencing this bug? Thanks in advance. This is very
frustrating as I depend heavily on Book Share for Both pleasure reading and
for professional items.
