How to Copy Audio Books to your MP3 Player?

There's no denying what a perfect combination audio book technology and the introduction of MP3 portable players have become.
You now have the option of listening to your audio book, not just on cassette tape players, CD players, and your computer, but also on your MP3 player.
So, if you are one that would rather listen to your audio book on MP3 player, rather than your PC, you now can.
Below are the exact steps you need to take to make this possible.

NOTE that the below instructions are based on Windows Media Player Version 10. If you are using an older version, you can download the latest version from Microsoft's website.
Here's the exact link -

First, you need to download or copy the audio book to your computer.
Second, you need to plug in the USB cable to both the computer from which you want to copy the audio book and the MP3 player (all MP3 players come with this USB cable).
As soon as you plug in the USB cable to both your computer and MP3 player, your computer will indicate that it has found a new piece of hardware. If it doesn't indicate this, then something is wrong. Simply unplug it and try again.
Third, open your Windows Media Player and open the audio book you want to copy. This will open the audio book in the main display area of Windows Media Player.

Fourth, add the audio book to the Sync List of your Windows Media Player.
Fifth, now you should click on the Sync tab on the Windows Media Player. This will bring a pull-down arrow on the left-side box of the Sync tab. Make sure you select the option "Removable Disk (E)" as the source where the audio book will be copied to.
Sixth, you will see a display with an option to "start sync". Go ahead and click on this option. When you have done this, the Windows Media Player will indicate to you that it's sending the audio book to your MP3 player as "Removable Disk (E)".
Seventh, as soon as the sync (or copying) is complete, you can verify if it is on your MP3 player.

Lastly, ensure you click on your PC's hardware icon (located in your system tray) to "safely remove hardware". Don't remove the USB cable until you get the clear signal saying "safe to remove the hardware". NOTE - not doing this before removing the USB cable can damage your computer and/or your MP3 player.
When all of this is done, you can then playback the audio book from your MP3 player. If you have followed all of the above steps you should find the audio book playing on your MP3 player.

If however you are using an older version of Windows Media Player, you can still follow the exact steps above. The only major difference is that instead of having "sync", you will have "copy". You can click on it and follow the same steps above to have your audio book copied to your MP3 player.
