Sorry, I guess I got in on the middle of the discussion. I plugged in my iPod touch and went to the "books" tab. All the books in my iTunes library show up immediately. I have both books purchased from Audible.com and ones that I ripped from CD. I don't know what to tell you. If you find the answer please post it.
