Chris, I'm not having any problems searching my Audible Library. I'm unable to test with Window-Eyes at present, but I used both JAWS and NVDA with Internet Explorer 10 and got the expected results when searching for 2 different authors. In each case, all of the books by these authors in my library were displayed in a table, and I had no difficulty moving through the table.

Since the issue occurs with both the latest IE and the Latest Firefox, I lean towards it being a site issue. It seems that the site insists on giving suggestions and then sticks with only the first suggestion to pop up rather than allowing the user to move through a list of them. It is truly frustrating when one is trying to find 10 or 12 titles in a library of over 400 books. I plan on redownloading my entire library since they now offer all titles in a single section, instead of the old method of dividing the books up to make for shorter downloads. I really prefer this format, and I suppose I could just start downloading all of the titles I need to redownload from the beginning of my library, but I would prefer to do it by author, thus getting to books I wish to relisten to quicker than those not so high on my relisten list. I sent an email to their customer service about this issue, so hopefully they will address it as they redesign pages. I would encourage anyone interested in changes to their site to send in requests. They seem open to suggestion, though I don’t know how fast they might be implementing changes. Personally, I also wish that they would allow some customization, I would love to get rid of the links for rating books, especially since they don’t disappear if one uses them to rate a book. The library section could be so much simpler and easier to use. Anyway, now I am off the original issue and just thinking aloud so to speak.

This occurs with both the latest Firefox and IE browsers and I am using Window Eyes 8.2. What happens is that if I am looking for books by a particular author that also has collaborations that I have in my library, only the collaborations show up. For example, searching for Elizabeth Moon, I find that Anne McCaffery has been added to the keywords despite the fact that I did not type her name in and only the one book by both authors will display while the twelve books I own written by just Moon will not display. I can delete the second name as many times as I like and Audible’s search will insist on putting it right back in there. I am trying to find a number of books in a large library and this is just getting really frustrating. sure, there are other ways to find the books, but they all require hunting the books out in a much more time and effort intensive means than just searching. If anyone knows how to get past this issue, I would love to know the method. Oh, if it makes a difference, my OS is Windows 7 64-bit. Thanks for any help.
