Good product if you have full sight, but for a totally blind person, wouldn't reccommend, as the options in the menus are not made clear on keyboard or screen readers, and it seems that you can only access them with a mouse, which it is hard for a totally blind person to do. I suggest that a little more work be done on this product making it more accessible to blind screen readers!

Does not convert the whole audible book. My download complete book was 10.5 hours. Epubor only converted 6.5 hrs. Tried twice. Converted works fine but book incomplete. Need guidance on how to convert it completely.

I'm trying the free/test version and it will only convert about 9 min. of my 7 hr. book.  Also, it can not split into chapters (options are greyed out). Maybe the paid version will do the split AND convert more than a teaser piece of the book. But I don't see where to go if it does not work as shown, so I'm looking elsewhere for a program.

1) 13 of 31 audiobooks I tried from my Amazon Audible account were only partly converted but were then given a green checkmark as if the conversion had been completed successfully.
2) The download direct from my Audible account via Audible's Download button to my Windows 10 computer appeared to download but failed. All files I attempted gave an error message that the *aax was not in the site.
3) The program is easy to navigate but unfortunately I paid for a lifetime license after by chance having the trial version succeed enough to believe it would work. If it works less than half the time, it is a great disappointment.

I have the Audible Converter from Epubor for Windows to convert Audible audiobooks. It works very well and I don't know of any other program that can also transfer the chapters of the audiobook.
I can also connect to my "audible library" and all the audiobooks I have bought are transferred! This makes it very easy to transfer and convert the audiobooks!
I can really recommend this program!

Sigh. Work in progress.  Keep working at it as this recent update is a step back. Here's your problem:  you made your converter into an audible only converter, linking your software directly to the Audible Library. Put another way, the Audible Library (online) is now the only source for your software.  

Imagine a different scenario:  The user downloads the Audible book (.aax file) to his/her own computer (let's assume a Windows PC).  Let's assume, too, that there are other audio books from other sources -- even DRM free files -- in the user's computer files.  Your previous version allowed the user to copy or drag a file from anywhere -- specifically from folders on the user's computer.  Now?  Not so much.  Actually, not at all.  So, I'll have to uninstall your current version -- which does have some promise and in fact is visually more attractive -- and re-install the previous version.  I'll await your next effort.

Things to think about:  1. Users download files to their own computers.  2. Users employ Epubor not just for Audible but for other sourced audio book files.  3. Users employ audible not just to convert or to eliminate DRM but to manage files in a common format.  4. Users also employ a larger range of metadata than you acknowledge; you really should pay more attention to metadata, and to the editing of metadata.  5. Users often do not assume or manage their audio book files as if they were "music". Audio books may be "audio" files, but they are first and foremost books, not music files so they are often managed as "documents" or as "general" rather than as music.  Forcing the "music" file and folder properties on the user is annoying.  Finally, 6. Users find software annoying that reverts to its internal defaults after taking the time to customize to the user's preferences.  Your continual default to the root drive for the output file is a case in point.  Allow the user to customize the input (source) and output folders, and then leave it alone.

I kind of like your software.  You just need to be a little more thoughtful regarding how users might employ it rather than trying to do their thinking for them.  Best of luck in your next iteration.

I agree. I have audiobooks that I have downloaded and there is now no way to convert an already downloaded book separate of the Audible Library that I have no control over. Should not be a problem since all my books are from audible but I do like the flexibility of converting directly

The new version of Epubor for Audible is a huge disappointment.  It worked wonderfully until the latest update.  Please, why did you have to partner with Audible anyway.  I would just download the books and then drag and drop into Epubor.  Now I cannot do that and I do not like what this has become.  Please fix it.  This is not what I paid for.  Many thanks in advance.
