I like calibre so far but not quite up to speed on using it any help would be great. DW
First off - welcome to MobileRead, revdavidwms! Good to meet ya!

If I understand you correctly, you are looking to import the books you've downloaded to your PC (to use with your K4PC program), yeah?

1. Well, you just got to find them on your PC (I am assuming you are using a Windows computer ... for other PCs than that, I dunno):

a. For the K4PC app, your downloaded books should be in My Documents>My Kindle Content folder

b. For the Barnes & Noble reader, your books should have been downloaded to My Documents>My BN eBooks folder

2. Once you know where they are, open Calibre and select the Add Books icon. It'll open a Windows Explorer window where you can browse to either (or both!) of those two folders I mentioned. Then, you can select the book(s) you want to import into Calibre and - you're done!

Hope this helps. Again - welcome to MobileRead!

Happy reading.

Marilyn
