Sync audiobooks between your Mac and iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

You can sync all or a selection of your audiobooks on your Mac to your device.

See Intro to syncing your Mac and your devices.

Sync audiobooks to your device

Connect your device to your Mac.

Click in the Dock to open a Finder window, then select the device in the Finder sidebar.
If you connect your device to your Mac using a USB cable and don’t see the device in the Finder sidebar, see If your device doesn’t appear in the sidebar.
In the row near the top, click Audiobooks.
Select the “Sync audiobooks onto [device name]” checkbox to turn on syncing of your audiobooks.
With the checkbox selected, syncing is set to transfer all your audiobooks to your device.
To sync a selection of audiobooks, click “Selected audiobooks.”
Select the checkboxes for the individual audiobooks you want to sync in the audiobooks list. Deselect the checkbox for any audiobooks you don’t want to sync.
When you’re ready to sync, click Apply.

You can choose to sync your Mac and your device automatically whenever you connect them. See Turn automatic syncing on or off on Mac.

In the audiobooks list, deselect the checkbox of the audiobooks you want to remove.
