Thanks, Alex. So are you saying that when you open the Audible app on your phone you never got a pop-up message saying that it can’t sync with your watch? That’s very curious. I wonder why I would get it and you wouldn’t. Thanks, Donna Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 18, 2018, at 3:26 PM, 'Alex

Exactly. There was a bug where Apple Watch would continually show usage hints instead of playback controls, but that has long since been fixed. Apart from that, I've never gotten any error messages on either device. -- Alex Hall > On Nov 18, 2018, at 16:28, 'Donna Goodin' via

I'm not having that problem, so can't offer any ideas on how to troubleshoot it. If you want to remove the app from the Watch, though, that's easily done. Open the Watch app on your iPhone, and find Audible under the "installed on Apple Watch" heading. Double tap Audible, then find the "show on

does anybody know if it's possible to download from a personal music library on a Mac? my current understanding is that you can download a purchase right from the order page. last time I checked the my_music library was inaccessible. it's been awhile though so I'm hoping that may have changed.

At least in HFS / HFS+ an alias is a bit more powerful than a symbolic link. An alias will still point to a file or folder if the item is moved from its original location. If you create a symbolic link then move the item the symbolic link is pointing to then it ends up pointing to nothing.

Hi, Yes, the iTunes Store offers a lot of content with Audio Descriptions. You used to be able to enter "audio description" in the Search field and you'd get the titles. I'm not sure if that is still the case. You can, though, know if a title has audio descriptions when going to the page
