Hello,
I have an update. I think it has to do with the operating system we are using. I've been trying this on my Windows 7 machine, and whenever I hover over the "Download" button, I can see it's pointing to: /howtolisten
I'm guessing because the browser send the information of my operating system and there is no good way to play it on it.
I tested it then on my Linux machine, and it works fine. Same account, same day. On Firefox on my Ubuntu, I am able to download the axx files by clicking on the same button.
I hope this will help others.
-open the desktop version of the Audible library (on iPhone, hold down the "reload" arrow in the title bar, no idea for Android)
-copy the link behind the Download button
-send it to your PC via mail or whatever
To get the whole content of the audible book, you need to use the licensed version. You are welcome to purchase the license of Audible converter: https://www.epubor.com/audible-converter.html
The Audible book file on my Android 9 device is not .aax, it is .aaxc
Your program does not recognize the format. For giggles, after I copied it over to the Win10 box, I renamed it to .aax no joy.
Thoughts?
Any more problem, please feel free to let us know.
