Audible/IPhone

[Ritalin]

Ok, who knows how I can download the show from Audible directly to my IPhone?

Anyone?

Beuller?

Just download it then drag it into your itunes.

There should be a link at Audible to subscribe to the showas a podcast. That'll load it into iTunes to be updated like any other podcast. Then just tell the iPhone to sync to it.

[Ritalin]

It can't be downloaded with the browser on an Iphone, and the subscribe button doesn't work on the audible website.

You're trying to download Audible straight to your iPhone which is the problem, As far as I know the only way to do it is by downloading it on your computer and syncing it up to your iTunes and iPhone.

[Ritalin]

Yeah, I think you're right. I'm going to email audible, and if I find anything out I'll post it.

I can't remember if this happened but I think I read somewhere they are coming out with an App for Audible, I could be wrong though .

Any updates on this? I'm running into the same problem.

This worked.

[Ritalin]

Really? That's new. I'm going to test it and see. Nope. Didn't work. I can't figure out how to get iTunes to point toward Audible.

Here's what I got from Audible:

Thank you for contacting Audible.com. If I understand correctly, you are inquiring about downloading directly to your iPhone. I apologize for the trouble, but this is not currently a possibility.

Unfortunately, iPhones - despite having wireless internet capability, are unable to wirelessly connect to Audible and therefore are incompatible with Audible Air. Your podcast must instead be synced, or manually transferred from your computer using the iTunes program.

This is such a pain in the ass. I keep my iMac at home and travel a lot for work with a laptop. I like to download the show in the hotel room to my laptop then listen to it while I drive. I keep all my music on my home computer. Now I have to sync (AKA overwrite) all my music just to hear that day's show. Then when I get home, I sync with the iMac again and get the music back.
