When you import a book into iTunes from CD, it’s placed in the Music section like any other music CD. Since Bookmark works with tracks from the Books section of iTunes, you’ll need to move them into Books in order to listen to them. It just takes a few steps but it’s not intuitive (at least for an Apple product). This short video shows how easy it is once you’ve learned it:
Steps Summary:
- Select one or more tracks you want to move in the Music section
- Right-click then click “Get Info”
- Select the Options tab
- Check the “Media Kind” box and choose “Audiobook”
- The tracks will now be in the Books section
P.S. Many thanks to Michael Alderete for his post on Aldoblog that first taught me how to do this. I’ve referred Bookmark customers to this article at least 100 times.
