I’ve been using itunes to transfer large zip files into voice dream reader. It’s not easy to do.

Chip, with the latest iTunes, don’t even think about using it for getting MP3 books into Voice Dream. The accessibility of iTunes has gone completely down the toilet. There is a way to transfer zip files with iTunes, but it now takes a sighted person to do it unless you don’t mind a stupidly high number of trials and errors. That is my take on it. It used to be super easy with iTunes 11 and prior.

Thanks richard. I’ll give it a try. Also, thanks Dave, but I am not sure how to do this via Itunes without some more detailed instructions (I know how to get songs via Itunes moved over, just now a group of mp3 files which are a book; I don’t want them to end up in my music library.

Hi Chip, My favorite way is through DropBox. Now, if you are using iCloud Drive and iCloud Sync with Voice Dream Reader, be aware that large audio files take a very long time to sync, so I would not keep them long in your library. Also, if you have a book in mp3 format that has lots of chapters that are separate files, you want to first make sure they are labeled so they will play in order, then zip them into a zip file and name the zip file with the name of the book. Then, put that zip file on Dropbox, for example, and then add it to Voice Dream from within Voice Dream. Then, Voice Dream will treat it as a book with each file being a chapter. It is quite slick.

HI. i’m having some issues with voice dream reader. I am running a 6 s with the latest iOS update. Sometimes when I launch voice dream reader, I get a message saying that iCloud isn’t available. Not sure if this is a connection issue. Nothing will play after dismissing the message, until I reboot my phone. The more annoying problem though, is this. I have an audio book which has 4 parts to it. Each part is about 4 hours long. I’m fine if I play the file straight through, but about an hour before a part of the book is about to end, , If I try to rewind or fast forward I end up at odd places in the book. It’s almost like at certain parts of the file, the rewind and fast forward act like I’m skipping by an hour or something. If I skip forward too far, I end up at the next part of the book. It also doesn’t tend to keep my place when it’s at , the particular spot where i’m having problems. I really love this app, but have had to resort to using downcast, as if the book is paused at problem spots, it jumps back or forward to the next part, and it’s impossible to rewind or forward to find where I was up to. I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced these issues with audio books, before I write to the developer. thanks Maria -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
