when listening to a book does it keep your place after you shut it off

I don't know about books. I DO know, when I'm listening to a music CD and shut it off during play, it will always return to the first song, so I'm guessing NO, it won't.

If you are listening to a song, and then shut the mp3 off, and then turn it back on, you'll end up back at the main menu. But if you click Music, it will go right back to where you were (same song, same place within the song).

I'm an audiobook listener, and it will remember you previous track position, assuming you don't skip tracks or add/remove any files. If you do, then it loses the position.

Here's the dowside of using a Shuffle to listen to books - it is really easy to accidently lose your place in the book. When this happens, it's a pain-in-the-neck to get back to where you were. I know you can lock the shuffle so this doesn't happen but then it's a hassle to pause it if, say, someone wants to talk to you. I have used a Nano for about 4 or 5 years mainly to listen to books. There are several advantages besides being able to see on the screen exactly where you are in the story. I love the sleep timer feature. I set it for 15 minutes and if I happen to fall asleep, I don't run the battery down and I know I only have to go back, at most, 15 minutes. This is not something you can do with a Shuffle.

Yes, when you power down the device, and then power it up again, it starts playing at the same position that you stopped it.

(For listening to audiobooks) Does this resume at the same place when you restart the car?

Yes it does. Every time you stop playing the cd, the CD Walkman will remember where you stopped palying and resume it after that point. I hope that this answers your questionm my dear friend.

Yes, I believe it will. Every time I power off; it starts with the next song on my list with no problems. This is the best purchase I've ever made. Enjoy, your books!

Not really. It depends if I am listening to podcasts I can sometimes hear it if it is on the ground but I'll move it around and it will go away. With music no.

I hear that it does not have bookmarks for audio books. Does it remember its place when you turn it off and back on?

Not that I'm aware of. I have forgot to turn it off in the past & go back & it's still on. So, I'm assuming it doesn't. I'm learning to turn it off before I leave the room. But, I've been very happy with it. It does well for what I need. Thanks

The answer to both questions is "no". I have a question for you; have you found a way to "pause" when you are listening and then pick up where you left off. The instructions say you can but I have found that it to be true.

I think it works that way. I notice it go to sleep mode after a while if no activities. There are couple settings at the bottom of the speaker for sleep mode settings. I love this speaker.

I use it for listening to lectures, books and music. If you pause it (and let it auto shut off) or turn it off it starts over from where you left off. If you set the sleep timer it starts over from where it shut off. Also it turns on quickly. It has bookmarks and I find them easy to use. All in all I am very happy with its performance and usability.

I believe after an hour or 2 of being inactive, it automatically shuts off. Once you sync with blue tooth, everytime you turn it on, it will start playing music from your device. Do what I do and keep the remote at a convenient location. Overall this speaker is totally worth the price surprisingly coming from a CD manufacture company. Definitely good for outdoor or bed room.

Sorry, this player doesn't do that. Yeah, some players remember where you were when you shut it off. You just have to remember what chapter you were up to and then fast forward until you get to where you were.

Yes it will. If you are listening to a recorded program and power down, it will immediately go to the file that you were listening to and to the point last heard when powered back up.
