I accidently put one part of an audiobook onto my iTouch twice. Normally you can do a quick swipe across an item and it will show the red 'delete' button and it's gone that quick, but I can't get it to work with the book. Do I need to do something different?

You can only delete audio in iTunes. Just un-check the box next to that selection, and sync the iPod again.

I normally sync manually, as I don't want everything in iTunes on my itouch. How does it work doing it that way? I've not deleted audio from it yet, only books.

Once you're hooked up to itunes, just go into the itouch audiobooks tab and click delete on the book. It will come right off (and stay in your itunes library)

BTW, I have to recommend iPod: The Missing Manual (7th edition) by J.D. Biersdorfer (Not Kindlized)

There is a lot of information in there and it really helped with many of my questions:

I've been looking for something like this, but how do I get to the itouch's content? Every time I click on the device, it just wants me to edit the name. Sorry to sound so stupid, but I can't find where to do this. Once I do, I'm sure it will be slick.

Thanks for the book recommendation....the Apple manual for the itouch leaves much to be desired!

Next to the name is a little arrow, pointing to the right, click on it and it will open up the whole menu for what's on your ipod.

Thanks so much!  I had clicked on everything except that little arrow! Ugh! Worked like a charm and I learned something new! 

I've already located that book at our local  B&N and am going to get it tomorrow. I'm sure I will learn all sorts of new & neat things.

Glad it helped.

As for the book. They're great. Just make sure you get the correct edition.

I've got the book already!  Plans changed and I ran out and got it tonight. I got the last one at B&N and ended up getting it for $13 after sales, coupons, etc. It looks like a great book and just what I was looking for. I'm anxious to dig into it and see what new stuff I find.

I made sure it was the exact edition you recommended...I wanted the most up-to-date one. Thanks again!
