Oops, realize after the fact that this is a conversation on Overdrive, and not
dropbox. Ignore my previous outbursts.

Hi Christine,
Try the following, and see if it helps:
1. Open the Overdrive application window.
2. Open the folder in Finder that contains the items you wish to move via drag
and drop to Overdrive.
3. Using VoiceOver navigation, select the item or items you wish to move using
drag and drop
Can someone tell me how to do this on the mac? I downloaded the app, but it
doesn’t seem to be accessible. When I try drag and drop, I always get the
message: "failed to drop”. Cutting and pasting seems to have no affect.
Thanks.

Catalina is 64-bit and no iTunes. Overdrive has decided to discontinue the
Overdrive Media Console app since it is 32-bit and requires iTunes to do its
thing, I guess. Any future Overdrive usage in their new 64-bit app will allow
only direct streaming to the Mac for real-time listening, and no
I am confused why this is a Catalina. Only limitation from Overdrive? Maybe I

According to what I read, users will no longer be able to download MP3 format
audio books from Overdrive once using Catalina. This means that the only way to
listen to an audio book from Overdrive will be to listen directly on the device
during the time limit of the loan from the library. I

Thanks for your response, Mark. I will download the Overdrive app and get the
sighted assistance you suggested. I am assuming that whenever I read a Kindle
book I check out that Overdrive should also be launched. Or, do I go through
my list of books from within the Overdrive app?
Thanks

Hello Mike,
Your question is difficult to answer because OverDrive for iOS, while VoiceOver
accessible, is not the most intuitive of iOS apps to use.
Having said this, I use OverDrive for iOS every single day and I love it. Keep

I hear Overdrive is fairly doable on the mac. Again, I personally have never
tried it, so I can't verify this. I'm going by what others have told me. It
should be at least somewhat doable, if not very doable.

Hello Mark.
Thanks for your message. I did have an RNIB login for the RNIB Talking book
library. For some reason, it could not see my book shelf items and it kept
saying orientation locked so today I changed my Talking book subscription and
deleted Overdrive off my phone. I understand a lot
with an excellent bookmarking feature and sleep timer
available. The playback interface is absolutely outstanding.
Finally, I suggest that you begin your exploration of OverDrive by first
setting up a user account at http://overdrive.com
Good Luck,

Hi Daniel,
It’s not a limitation between Mac and iOS, it’s a limitation of Overdrive for
Mac full stop. It wouldn’t work on the Mac if your second device was a PC

Hi Daniel,
Do you mean being able to resume playback on the Mac from where you left off on
your iDevice?
If so, this is a limitation in the Mac Overdrive program - you can’t do it.
