As the rapid development of science and technology, the pace of life becomes faster for everyone. Compared with reading with eyes, most people want to read with their ears so that they can drive, swim or do more other activities. So audiobooks come out. And the audiobooks from Audible.com are the most popular ever since. But how can you download Audible books on your PC/Mac? In this post, you will find the best answer.


In Audible.com, there are millions of audiobook titles for you to choose. Such rich contents are easy to meet your requirements. Now follow the next steps to learn how to buy Audible books. If you have already bought the Audible books, just skip to the next part to download them to your PC or Mac computer.




Download Book From Google Books Firefox Homepage




In the navigation of the Audible site, click "Library" option and then click "Titles". Then you can find all Audible audiobooks you bought in your library. Find the audiobooks you want to download and then click "Download" button.


If you are using MacOS Catalina or Big Sur, the downloaded Audible books can be imported to Apple Books and will appear in the Audiobooks section of Apple Books. (Since the release of MacOS 10.15 Catalina, Apple has transitioned from iTunes to Apple Books.)


Notice: If you are using the latest version of Firefox browser to download the audible books, the downloaded format will be .mp4, not .aax. If you got the Audible MP4 files, please follow the guide How to Deal with Audible MP4 Files and convert Audible MP4 to MP3.


By default, you can transfer your audible files from android/iphone to computer only if you can find them. But please keep this in mind that the newly downloaded audible audio books will be AAXC format (not the aax).


Even if you download the Audible books to computer, but none of the audio player can play the AAX file. Why? In fact, Audible audiobooks are always bundled with its own app (Audible app or specified devices), and they are saved as aax format. But you know the most pupular audio format is MP3. If we could download Audible files to mp3 format, we can play audible on any devices without any limitation. Here we will meet Epubor Audible Converter tool, which can not only remove DRM from Audible but also convert audible to MP3 easily.


I did see the recommend article in ghacks.net about changing the setting from Save to Always ask and I thought I had made this change earlier but guess I spaced it. This is why I was surprised the other day when firefox unexpectedly started downloading a file I did not request.


I did find the article in askvg.com and changed the value from true to false and retested and found all was good...so I'm feeling better now knowing firefox will prompt prior to starting a download. Lets see how long before firefox nixes that work around...


The Digital Accessible Information SYstem (DAISY) format is a means of creating digital talking books for people who wish to hear--and to navigate--written material presented in an audible format. DAISY helps those with "print disabilities," including blindness, impaired vision, and dyslexia, to read electronic texts that have been converted into its format. The DAISY consortium was formed in 1996 by talking book libraries around the world to lead the transition from analog talking books into digital format.


To download books for offline access, you will firstly need Adobe Digital Editions a free program that is different than Adobe Reader. If using a mobile device, the Adobe Digital Editions App is free from the Apple App Store and Google Play. You can use other reader apps as long as they are able to handle the Adobe DRM (Digital Rights Management). Search in the app store of your choice for e.g. 'adobe drm reader' or just 'adobe drm' to get a list of potentially suitable apps.


You do need an Adobe ID simply to read a downloaded book on one device. You can get an Adobe ID for free if you wish to transfer your downloaded eBook from one device to another. You will not need an Adobe ID if you continue to read it on the same device. Select the number of days you wish to download the book for. If you're using a computer, you will download an asm. file into your downloads folder. Use Adobe Digital Editions to open that file. You should now be able to read the book offline on the Adobe Digital Editions Reader.


Thanks it worked like a charm not sure if something changed recently but it worked for me. I left my IPad at work and this saved the day. But, lesson learned all future ebooks will come from other sources. THANKS


Most people ask this question because they want to read best-sellers and other paid-for books from the iBookstore. Your addon will NOT let them do that, it will only work for free books (or those from the very few publishers which do not use DRM).


Unfortunateley it's not possible to read iBooks on a computer since they come with DRM on them. This DRM prevents the books from being opened on anything other than iPads, iPhones and iPod Touches with the iBooks application and your Apple ID. It seems unlikely that Apple would release such an application to read iBooks on a computer but so far they've made no announcements so it's still a possibility.


Actually it is highly surprising that Apple has not yet released iBooks for Mac laptops/desktops, since all the competing ereaders have done so, which makes buying books from them much more attractive. So I would think that a future release for OS X is very likely. A release for Windows seems a lot less so...


You are thinking wrong. When you have actually bought a book from the ibookstore with drm and read it with your Firefox or anything else on your Mac or PC, do come back here and tell us the name of the book.


I have no problems with reading most of the free books I have obtained from iBooks in Forefox, but anything I've paid jolly good money for - ie, a textbook costing $40 - I can't read or open on my PC in my browser.


That is what I see and that is the expected behavior. Someone who claims otherwise is either a) reading a free book, or b) reading books from one of the very few publishers who don't do DRM, like O'Reilly, or c) removing the DRM before trying to open the book. 2ff7e9595c
