If you have already completed converting your free audio books download MP3 files into several iPod track files, you will now need to complete the following steps to be sure your free audio book download can be played on your iPod. These are simple steps to help you ensure your audio book will play correcting and in the right order on your iPod.
Once you have converted the MP3 files, you will find duplicates of every track of the book. You can click on the "Kind" column header to sort out these files by file type. This is an easy way to select all of the MP3 files and delete them. After you have deleted these files, be sure to click on the "Move to Trash" button so you can regain the disk space.
Now select all of the AAC formatted files.
At the "File" menu, click on "Get Info". You will see a window entitled "Multiple Song Information". Here you need to enter all the information that is the same for all tracks like the author, free audio books title, and genre. Finish by clicking on the "OK" button.
Select the first part or track of the book. Go again to "Get Info" under the "File" menu. Now you should see all of the individual tracks available for this book. Now comes the somewhat tedious part. You will probably have to rename each track.
Try using the book title followed by the track number and then the number of total tracks. Add an additional zero if your total tracks are more than ten or these tracks won't sort correctly. (3/32 should be 03/32) Abbreviate the title if it is long or your track numbers maybe off your iPod screen, especially if you have an iPod mini.
Now go to the "Options" menu. Check the line "Remember playback" and be sure to uncheck the shuffling options. This probably would ruin the mood of your book! Now continue renaming your iPod tracks and clicking the appropriate playback buttons for your entire free audio books download tracks.
It may take you a little while to complete this, but it's better than having to swap out ten to fifteen audio book CD's. Save your work and you are now ready to sit back and enjoy your new free audio book on your iPod.
