Default How do I get my iPod speed faster?

Hi everyone.

I bought myself the cutest iPod Nano.I have some great audio books, and now I want to listen to them in high speed.

I found the possibility to speed up at the "audio books" menu, but, for some mysterious reason my audio books do not get into the section.

So what I want is a way/enhancement to speed up everything I can listen to.

How do I arrange?

Thanks in advance

I myself have an Ipod classic but I guess that shouldn't change anything. And if you're using Itunes to import the music files to your ipod I know the way

You see when you import the audiofiles, all audiofiles go to catagory music. What you will have to do is select the audiobook file in the music catagory, right click on it, then select in the new window "options". This is where you can change the type of media. Change music into audiobook.

I hope this was clear. This may not be 100% the same for you because my Itunes is in Dutch and I just translated it literally.

How to speed up everything I don't know, but I assume that won"t be needed anymore.

Default Bravo!

Hey Smartass,

Thanks for your help, I did find the way thanks to your advice.

It took a few days for me to understand what you meant, but do not take that personally

Only books that are in m4b format goes straight into the ipod's auiobook category.
I recommend mp3 to ipod audio book converter, I use and loving it

Thanks for your input, Rossoneri.

Till so far I'm not satisfied with the book reading speed on the iPod. Even the fast mode is not fast enough for me. I clocked and it is just slightly faster.

So if there is a way to make it faster, I'm all ears.

Luckily I found you can also listen to music on the iPod
