Hello,
I have weird problem that I thought you could help me with....
In my iTunes library I have two audiobooks. I have them checked to sync with my iPod Mini (32gb A-Data CF). I can "see" them grayed out under my iPod but they are not showing in my "Audiobooks" area on my Mini. I have the audibooks part turned on in the iPod settings. The books are in my music list under the artist.
Any ideas?

Thanks

I believe that the audio books need one of several suffix to be recognized under the Audio Books list in iTunes. I solved this problem by changing the suffix on books I had ripped from m4a to m4b and reimporting the files into iTunes. There is an Applescript named "Make Bookmarkable" at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/ that does all this automatically.
