You can also just tell iTunes that a group of selected files are audio books through the info menu thing in iTunes. I can't remember how to get to it now, but I'm sure if you ask on the list, you'll get answers. I think it might be ctrl+i. Thanks, Ari > On Aug 6, 2016, at 1:34 AM, Donald

Jerry, Remember that VDR will use the name of the Zip file as the name of the book and each mp3 file in the zip file will be the chapter names. So, you need to be sure the mp3 file names will be in sequence. I always use leading zeros to make sure they remain in order. like, 01, 02 etc. Or, if

The one thing that does wonders with this is to access a free program such as mp3to iPad audiobook converter. Then the iPhone knows it's a book and it'll go in the right place. program such as mp3 to audiobooks -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com

Hello Jerry, You have received some excellent tips in this thread. Like you, I have many, many MP3 files that I enjoy reading as audio books. I am a big fan of iTunes via Jaws for Windows. As I am particularly resistant to third-party solutions unless absolutely necessary, I use the

Thanks to everyone who has responded to my inquiry! I thought I had tried the MP3 zipped file into VDR, but will try it again. I do use Bard on the phone, and do buy audible books but have collected many hundreds of mp3 formatted books and want to re-read some of them. Thank you all so

Hi Jerry, if you get the Voice Dream Reader app, and have dropbox, you can easily use dropbox to put .ZIP files into Voice Dream reader, and then have all of the benifits of reading them on the phone, just like the BARD app. You can even speed up or slow down the rate of speech and it works

Jerry, I'd agree with Sieghard that if you have mp3 audiobooks you're wanting to get on your iPhone, Voice Dream Reader and Dropbox are the easiest solution. You can copy the zipped mp3 books into an appropriate Dropbox folder on your computer and easily add them to Voice Dream using the

Are these all Audible books? Did you buy them through itunes or through Audible. It sounds like you bought them through iTunes. Since Apple has dropped the ball on accessibility with iTunes, I'd call the Accessibility number and talk to them about a refund or some way to get them off your

Hi Daniel, I am not sure if Jerry is talking about Audible books, based on his subject I assume he is talking about just audio books in general, most likely MP3 formatted books. Anyhow, I haven't synced audio books via iTunes in a long time since I much prefer to use Voice Dream Reader to

Thanks for the info! I can, and have, done this, but it really galls me to have to buy books that I already own, just because iTunes is not accessible!! I did this for the entire incarnations of immortality series by Piers Anthony, but do not want to re-buy the thousands of books I already

Hi Jerry, The easiest way I found is to download the Audible iOS app and log in using your credentials. Whenever your credits arrive, simply log onto the site through a computer, purchase your audiobooks and once the purchase is complete, open the app on your iPhone and refresh. To Refresh,

Good afternoon everyone! I am getting desperate now! I have tried everything I can find to get audio books onto my iPhone. I even bought iExplore because it said you could mount the folders like a windows drive, but no luck! I also bought the JTunes scripts for iTunes, and can't get to the
