NEWS

The iPhone app for Listen Up! Vermont downloadable audio books is here!
OverDrive has  released the app for the iPhone, joining the app for the Blackberry, Windows Mobile phones, and for Android phones, all of which are available for download on the OverDrive Media Console page.

If you have an iPod Touch or an iPhone, completing the download process just got much easier. Using any of these Internet-enabled phones you can browse the Listen Up! Vermont website using the phone's browser; when you click on download in the website, the app will open on your phone to finish the process. This removes the step of having to download to your computer and transfer the files to your device.

iPod Touch and iPhone users will have to be sure to download only mp3 formatted titles; if you try to download a WMA title, the app will give a clear message that it cannot complete the process.

Transferring to an iPod
With the new ability to transfer WMA format audio books to an iPod using a PC, it can get a little tricky! If you have trouble getting a WMA file onto an iPod using a PC (and there is no Mac involved!), try the following steps:
 

It may be helpful to uninstall the OverDrive Media Console.  To remove your existing installation of OverDrive Media Console:
- Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
- Near the bottom of the page, download the installation package for the
'Windows Install Cleanup Utility'.
- Once you download the .EXE file, run it to install the utility.
- Then, run the utility from the programs list in the Start Menu.
- Select the OverDrive Media Console and click 'Remove'.
- Close the utility.

After you have completed these steps please perform the following to reinstall the OverDrive Media Console:
1. Copy this URL:
http://www.overdrive.com/files/odmediaconsolesetup.msi
and paste it in your web browser's address field.
2. Press 'Enter' to begin the download.
3. When the .msi has finished downloading, attempt to install it.

Once these steps have been completed, please ensure that the setting 'Manually Manage Music' has been adjusted on their iPod. If needed, here are the steps to accomplish this:
- Connect your device to your computer.
- If it does not launch automatically, open iTunes (v7.6.2.9 or newer).
- In iTunes, locate your device in the left vertical navigation panel (under heading 'DEVICES'), and click your device.
The 'Summary' screen is displayed.
-If it is not already checked, place a checkmark next to option 'Manually manage music…'
- Click the 'Apply' button.
The iTunes 'Summary' screen refreshes, and your changes are saved.
- If desired, close iTunes.

After the setting 'Manually Manage Music' has been adjusted (or confirmed that it's set) try transfering a title to your iPod by using the OverDrive Media Console Transfer Wizard.
