Q: deleted audiobooks still show in iBooks

I've deleted my audiobook yet they still show on the iPod but not on iTunes

 

Have I missed something?

 

iPod software and iTunes up to date.

    Just how did you delete them?

    Deleting them from your iTunes library does not directly delete them from your iPod.

     

    From the manual:

    Remove books. Tap Select, select some books, tap Delete, then choose an option.

    I've deleted some by sliding the icon to the right (on iPod)

     

    I've deleted them in iTunes (making sure I'm deleting them from 'On My Device' not just my HD library.

     

    I've just deleted them all off my iPod with iTunes and they're still on my iPod.

    (again, I delete them off my device, not just my iTunes GUI)

    Check your sync selections in iTunes. Deleting the content directly on the device won't change those. If that isn't the issue then the following steps should help, assuming all of the content you want is in your library. (If it isn't see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.)

     

    1. Backup device.

    2. Restore as a new device.

    3. Restore the backup you made earlier.
