I can't get one of my audiobooks into itunes. Thus, i also can't get it onto my ipod. I would click on "Add file" and double click on it. But it doesn't so up into the library in itunes. Any ideas why? How to fix it?

What is the format of your audio book?

Where did you get it?

Did you digitize it yourself?

Can you open it in any software?

If you can't it's either corrupt or encoded in a strange way. To help you further I need to know the encoding properties of the file.

When I try to import it says " the file "audiobook.mp3" cannot be imported An unknown error occurred (-50)."

I can listen to the audio in limewire, and any other audio player.

Many times i can just rename the file and then it can be added to the library.

I can listen to the audio in limewire, and any other audio player.Windows media player or any other player usually have a "properties" options where it show you the bit rate, the encoder that was used, the size.....

Can you post those?

I'm not familiar with that software. I have to assume there's something wrong with the file itself (a piece missing, corruption of the file that happened during the download, ...)

If you can listen to the whole thing and that there are no "glitches" then the situation is even more confusing.

But then again it's p2p so everything is possible...
