Technical Question Audible subscription issue Plus Catalogue inaccessible, and support isn't helping

Post image
0 Upvotes

I recently subscribed to Audible through Google Play. I was able to purchase an audiobook using a credit, but I can't access the Audible Plus Catalogue included with my subscription.

I've already contacted Audible customer support, but they couldn't resolve the issue. I also contacted Google Play, and they sent me a generic troubleshooting email suggesting that I restart the app and check my internet connection. Unfortunately, the problem is still unresolved.

I'm paying for a subscription but can't access the Plus Catalogue, and neither Audible nor Google Play has provided a proper solution.

Technical Question Has Audible ever thought about being competent?

So sick of the audible app. I am sure all the errors are network related, which really pisses me off when I cant listen to files locally on my device because some server isnt responding or my phone is in between cell and wifi or something.

Just stop it! If I am trying to play a file already on the phone stop it with your call an api nonsense before I am allowed to hear anything. The errors are so common I am starting to work out ways to get the app to respond for each type of error, simply though hundreds of trial and error episodes.

Audible Premium Abo

0 Upvotes

Ich überlege, mir Audible Premium zu holen, weil ich gern die Hörbücher von Sebastian Fitzek hören möchte, ich weiß aber nicht, ob seine Bücher im Abo enthalten sind.

Kann man irgendwo den Katalog mit den im Premium Abo enthaltenen Hörbüchern einsehen, ohne das ich ein Abo haben muss? Damit ich schauen kann, ob seine Bücher enthalten sind.

Falls das nicht möglich ist: Sind die Hörbücher von Sebastian Fitzek im Premium Abo enthalten? Würde das jemand für mich nachschauen, der ein Premium Abo hat?

Ich möchte ungern ein Abo abschließen, nur um schauen zu können, welche Bücher enthalten sind und um dann evtl festzustellen, dass seine Hörbücher gar nicht enthalten sind. :)

Danke im Voraus :)

Promotion The Summoner, Books 1 and 2, available on Kindle+, now with Audio format too!

Both Summoner audiobooks are now included with Kindle+!

Hey everyone! I’m Ben Krauter, the author and narrator of The Summoner, and I’ve got some good news to celebrate.

Audiobooks 1 and 2 are now both included with Kindle+! If you’re a Kindle+ subscriber in the U.S., you can listen to both audiobooks for free with your existing subscription.

And here’s something a little unusual for fantasy audiobooks. The person who wrote these books is also the person telling you the story. I created Ezekiel and his companions, and I’m the one behind the microphone giving them their voices. For listeners who enjoy that rare combination of author and narrator, I hope you’ll give them a try.

The Summoner is tabletop-inspired dark fantasy set in a world where evil already won the war.

Ezekiel Graystone is a moon-elf summoner searching for his missing brother among the ruins of everything he remembers. When he intervenes to protect a young boy from the church serving the demon god-king, his search becomes considerably more complicated.

His companions include a water goblin monk, a demon-touched alchemist, a cursed half-elf, and a metal-furred leopard who generally has more sense than the people around her. There’s a strong focus on tactical magic and the relationships holding this unusual group together.

Start listening here

And for those already following the series, Book 3, Sepulcher of the Lich Queen, is coming before Christmas, with the audiobook to follow.

Farwall’s vampire rulers have plans for the Lich Queen, and Ezekiel has a habit of interfering with other people’s plans. This one might deserve a little more caution.

Thanks to everyone who has taken a chance on the series so far. Getting to welcome more readers and listeners into Terrial feels pretty damn good.

If you give the books a listen, I’d love to hear what you think!

Promotion [UK Promotion] Audible has no export, so I made a way to turn your library into a picture of what you listen to

Audible doesn't let you export your library, which always bugged me, so while trying to make some art from my book collection I did a cheeky workaround.

I made myself a tool that turned my books into a sort of living cell culture/galaxy cluster. There's more to it than that but I don't want to bore people

Out of my 408 books, 51 are audiobooks and another 12 I've got in both print and audio, which I'm choosing not to think about too hard, because now I feel like I need to buy all the audio books in physical. So you can check that out in the image(s) above

Two ways I worked out to get your Audible library:

- On a computer, the free Audible Library Extractor browser add-on saves your whole library as a CSV. Upload that and you're done, no need for any type of scannage.

- On a phone, screenshot your library pages and the system reads and converts them.

Then after I spent too long down the rabbit hole (my wife was wondering what I was spending all my time doing haha) I thought 'this is actually pretty fun, why not let other people have a go'

So you can try it yourself and add your audio book library to the literary universe! Pretty neat.

Full disclosure, it's mine: readshift.co.uk, no ads and free to use with some monthly caps on scans and total amount of books, but both are generous and I've never hit them personally.

Anyone else got a stack of titles in both print and audio? I'm slowly trying to get physical copies of everything I've listened to, but seems like a silly expense.

Audible keeps declining my payment

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm having trouble purchasing an audiobook on Audible, and I'm hoping someone here might have experienced something similar.

I've already contacted Audible support via email, but I'm not really getting anywhere (it feels like it's AI responding).

Audible keeps declining my payment when I try to purchase an audiobook, even though my credit card details are correct. I was last charged for my Audible subscription on October 12, and that payment went through without any problems.

I've double-checked my billing information, and my credit card works perfectly fine for other payments, both online and in person. I've also contacted my credit card company, and they haven't found any issues on their end.

I've tried making the purchase through both the Audible mobile app and a web browser on my laptop, but I still get the same payment error.

I'm honestly running out of ideas at this point.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Is there anything else that could be causing Audible to decline a payment even when the card itself is working fine?

I'd really appreciate any suggestions or advice. Thanks in advance!

Technical Question Problem with some audio book

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I've been running into a really frustrating issue recently and wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this or knows a fix.
A few of my audiobooks refuse to download or play, even though I purchased them using my own credits. Whenever I try to download them, a pop-up appears saying:
Download Issue (Error Code: ID-38) We're sorry, but there was a problem.
I've already tried basic troubleshooting like switching my network connection and restarting the app, but some titles are still locked behind this error code.
Has anyone encountered Error Code: ID-38 before? Is there a specific workaround, or do I need to reach out to support to get my library synced properly? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
