Did you have cellular access? Several people reported that during the shutdown they could only play books they had either downloaded through BARD Mobile or had started before the shutdown. they got authorization errors whenever they tried to play a book they had transferred via iTunes. You could also try the same experiment by turning on air plane mode. It could also be that just by opening up BARD Mobile after the transfer, the authorizations were verified, especially since you said you got the download complete message just by opening up the BARD Mobile app.

I transferred several books using itunes. The first thing that happened when I opened the bard mobile app, I got the download complete sound. I took my ipod to a place where I didn't have wi-fi access and the books played.

If you download it through the app then it's authorized as part of the
download. If you transfer it over to your phone with iTunes, DropBox,
..., then it's authorized the first time you open the book.

Hi Russ.  I think it is activated the first time you open it after it is
downloaded. When we had the government shut down, I had two books which I had put on my IPhone but not opened when I tried to read them when the web site was down, I got a book not authorized message. When they brought the site back up I was able to open them but had to redownload them to make it
work.

The book is activated when it is downloaded.

My understanding is that a book needs to be activated the first time you
open it. As long as you have already opened the book once, and it was
activated that first time, you should be fine. I could be wrong, and I have not been following this thread closely so I may be repeating someone else's
comments, but there you go in any case.
