Hi all, first post here. I did some searching but could not find the info I needed. Hoping someone can help.
New iPod touch user, I have some books on cd that I'm putting on the touch. Each CD (1 of 4) is broken down into very small tracks (mp3) of a min to 2 min long. I have named each track by chapter and order and they are listed as genres "books and spoken". I have created a playlist for the tracks so they will play in order. My question is how do I stop each individual track from playing in my touch except when played from the playlist. I understand I can prevent them from playing in shuffle mode. Ideally I would like to avoid having them in my song list as well. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

In iTunes, highlight all auto books, right click > get info > options tab > media kind > autobooks. This will move them all to the autobooks section in iTunes and on the iPod. Also make sure you select 'remember playback position' and 'skip when shuffling'.
