I have no idea whether any of the below comments will affect the issue Rose is 
having with Audible but since we're talking about Audible, I have some comments 
about it.

1. I'm not having any problems with getting books purchased from Audible and 
added to my library presented appropriately in the Audible version 2.13 app on 
my iPhone 6 running iOS 9.3.3 and they download to my device without issue.
2. I did note a couple of issues accessing the Audible website with Safari on 
my iPhone. The search button in the upper right of the screen is unlabeled and 
double tapping on it when it has focus with VoiceOver active does nothing. When 
VoiceOver is turned off, pressing this button causes a text box to drop down 
where you can enter your search text. I reported this to Audible Tech Support 
today.
3. The last time I tried purchasing Audible books on my computer running 
Windows 7 and Firefox, the button which is labeled either next or continue and 
must be executed to advance after you add books to your shopping cart was not 
displayed or announced by ZoomText with Firefox. I had to use IE 11 to complete 
my purchase. I've also reported this to Audible.
4. Audible telephone support has always been good in my experience and they can 
be reached at (888) 283-5051.
5. Be aware that at one point in time, you could access your Audible account 
with either a separate Audible ID or your Amazon ID. I'm not sure if that is 
still the case because at some point, I got the feeling I would be better off 
using my Amazon ID to manage my Audible content and switched to it. Make sure 
you are being consistent and using the appropriate ID for your purchases and 
your Audible app.

Hopefully, Rose will get some help from Audible telephone support to resolve 
her issue.

Thank you, I generally buy on the computer and they show up in the app to be 
downloaded but these two books are not, wondering if it is because I forgot to 
change my credit card number with Audible and was not aware of it until two 
months passed.  
I can buy, just can't get them to show up so I can actually download them so 
far, however, have not spent a lot of time of the issue since I just moved and 
have been organizing a new house, getting things fixed that need it, buying 
furniture ... 
It is at night when no family is here that I seem to have some time to read, 
not a lot of course.  Have a ton of NLS books but ... after a childhood and 
many adult years without ready access to more than a book or two at a time, I 
now tend to read two to three at a time, depending on which equipment, which 
subject and where I am when I have time to read.  I know, I know, but being 
able to store 200 books on a 32 GB card on the Stream, more than 50 on my 
iPhone and about 20 on my old iPad ... it is so much better than waiting for 
the library to send you something, or series out of order.

Hi Rose,

I apologize if I am trying to figure out what is happening.  Are you 
downloading the book from the Audible site from your computer?

I know that in the past, I used to download them using the Audible Download 
Manager, which once I began the download on the site, the download manager 
would download the files and import into iTunes, at which point I would connect 
my iPhone and sync to the phone.

I have long stopped this procedure as it got too complicated.  So in an effort 
to simplify things, I now just go to the site, whether on my iPhone, iPad or 
even on my Windows machine, and buy them from there, but not download them.

I then launch my Audible app on either my iPhone or iPad and refresh my 
library, at which point the new books appear and I can easily download them 
onto my device.  I found this process much simpler and easier then having to 
download to my computer and sync afterwards.

I am not sure if this is the same or if perhaps you have a Mac and Audible has 
a Mac App, not sure as I don't have a Mac, yet!

I know that using the method I use to sync books to my Audible app, I've rarely 
had an book not sync.  I think in the past three years, since I began doing all 
through the iDevice, I've only had two books not appear in my list.  For those 
two books, it was just that their system, although it had noticed that I 
purchased those books, something went wrong when it tried to sync and behaved 
as if I hadn't bought them.  At that time, I just called Audible themselves and 
they corrected the issue, and I tried once more and the app was able to see the 
books.

Besides that, each time I purchased books and returned to the app to refresh, 
the books appear.

Yes, well in January when I downloaded a book on the computer it asked if I 
wanted it to go to my iPhone or iPad and then told me next time I opened the 
app it would be there.  Now I am not asked but am not seeing the two books I 
bought after renewing my account of the iPhone to be downloaded.  Maybe I need 
to sign out on the phone and sign in again, I don't know.  It isn't like I 
don't have anything to read/listen to at the moment.

I agree!  This used to be so simple!  Now, I usually end up using the JAWS 
cursor to download the books.  If you read the entire screen, it will say 
something like "Download".  I had to use the jaws cursor to hover the pointer 
over this and hope the menu opened up under it, press the down arrow, and hit 
enter.  Very hard to download now!  I did notice that it was easier in internet 
explorer than it was in mozilla firefox, though - if that helps any.

E-mail me offline if you need to talk further or more in depth.

sorry not too helpful at this point, going off of memory.
Jerry

What do you mean by "select" your iPhone? How are you trying to download the 
books? Also, is it just these two particular books?;
