# Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
|
|
## Q: Where can I get help for my specific problem?
|
|
|
|
**A:** [You can open an issue here](https://github.com/rmcrackan/Libation/issues) for bug reports, feature requests, or specialized help.

|
## Q: What's the difference between 'Classic' and 'Chardonnay'?
|
|
|
|
**A:** First and most importantly: Classic and Chardonnay have the exact same features.
|
|
|
|
* **Classic** is Windows only. Its older 'grey boxes' look has a compact design which allows for more information on the screen. Notably, Classic was written using an older, more mature technology which has built-in support for screenreaders.
|
|
|
|
* **Chardonnay** is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Its modern design has a more open look and feel.

## Q: Now that I've downloaded my books, how can I listen to them?
|
|
|

## Q: I'm having trouble loggin into my Brazil account.
|
|
|
|
For reasons known only to Jeff Bezos and God, amazon and audible brazil handle logins slightly differently. The external browser login option is not possible for Brazil. [See this ticket for more details.](https://github.com/rmcrackan/Libation/issues/1103)

|
## Q: How do I use Libation with a South Africa account?
|
|
|
|
**A:** Like many countries, amazon gives South Africa it's own amazon site. [Unlike many other regions](https://www.audible.com/ep/country-selector) there is not South Africa specific audible site. Use `US` for your region -- ie: audible.com.
