Audion book in Itunes library won't sync to iphone

Hi I am trying to put an audio book on my iphone.

I have had the book for years and although it shows in my itunes library under audiobooks I can't get it on my iphone.

I have tried creating a playlist and moving it across and when I do that it shows on my iphone under audiobooks but then when I launch either books or itunes I can't find it.

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 12

Audiobooks in iTunes Hi How do I transfer previously purchased audiobooks in iTunes to the reading and podcast app on my iPhone? At the moment the audiobooks come up on my music playlist on my iPhone. Thanks in advance for your assistance

Why aren't my audiobooks syncing to my iPhone X from iTunes? Hello, iTunes tells me I have 15 audiobooks in my Library. In particular, the one I'm noticing not working correctly on my phone is the "Seattle Insight Lectures..." shown below. Note it has several "chapters." They are in reality simply audio files I added to iTunes and marked as audiobooks. After synching, my iPhone says I have 13 audiobooks. And while one of them is the Seattle Insight Lectures, it only has a single file in it. So my question is, why aren't things syncing properly and how do I do what I want here, which is to create an "audiobook" out of a sequence of related audio files and have them show up in iBooks on my iPhone? Note that I'm using the brand new iOS 12 update and the latest iTunes, but it was the same problem with the previous iTunes and iOS version. Thanks.

Audiobooks in iTunes I have an iPhone 6S running iOS 12.1.2 somewhere along the last few upgrades access to my audiobooks has been eliminated. There no longer is an screen icon for direct access to the purchased audiobooks. I just checked my iTunes account on my desktop and found all 30+ of the audio books I have purchased. and The audiobook purchase made last night from the iTunes Store is on the list and is downloadable but I donot want to download the book to my computer only to my phone. I find no way to access this list or download the audiobooks on the phone. I attempted access through the app store but found no access there either. How do I access audiobooks in the library, download and add an icon all on the iPhone?

Hi thanks for this but yes I've tried it.

Strange thing is there is one chapter of the book I can see in here but I can't get the other 6 chapters.

It came as a series.

I can all of them in my itunes library.

Do you remember how you got it synced to your Watch?
