Use Amazon Cloud as Calibre library?

Sydney's Mom · 10-16-2011, 02:03 PM

I used to use dropbox as my Calibre library, but I ran out of space. I just siged up for 20G of Amazon Cloud, since my music didn't count against that total (I have 14G of music). I was able to point Calibre to dropbox to set that up. Has anyone set up Amazon Cloud as their Calibre library? I can upload files, but don't see away to upload folders. Anyway, that wouldn't work to automatically upload new books. I guess I could just send them to my kindle, and they would be saved in my personal folder.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Debra

As far as I know, there's currently no way to do this. This is just one of the functions that amazon's cloud lacks, so far. Another (and this is why I still keep sugarsync) is real-time syncing of files.

Supposedly, amazon will come out with these features in the future, but who knows.
