    Default Question on For Dummies Book

    HI,

    This is my first post. I have been playing mandolin about 1 1/2 years now and enjoy it very much.

    I just downloaded Mandolin For Dummies enhanced version from iBooks. It is supposed to have all the audio tracks to be able to play right from the page of the book. No go !!

    I'm looking for advice and how to get it working properly.

    Thanks

    Bob

    Interesting question, maybe someone else here has used that, but I would suggest you send a question to the vendor about it.

    I remember in the past some folk were having issues with accessing audio files from the publisher website (I think they were using the print version of the book), and Don Julin posted a link to audio files he'd personally uploaded to a Dropbox account in order to help resolve their issues. You might want to search the forum and try to find that if all else fails.

    In fact, I have found this thread for you. The second post there by Don Julin has a link to all the mp3 files. https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/s...s+audio+tracks

    Thanks Mark,
    It appears I misunderstood how the book works. I will have to play the tracks with a media player while the book is on the right page.
    I thought it just played right from the ibook.
