I recently purchased the Kindle Touch. I have had NO problem reading .mobi files that I created with Calibre on the Kindle Touch. I simply place the file in my documents folder on the Kindle Touch. The problem is that I want to export my notes that I take on the .mobi file on the Kindle Touch to my Kindle for Mac.

I have been able to do this in the past when I took notes on my Kindle app for Android. I simply transferred the .mobi file along with the .mbp file to my Kindle for Mac and the notes show up just fine.

However on Kindle Touch when I take notes it appears to store them in a folder called .sdr which holds two files: .mbs and .mbp1

When I transfer these files along with the .mobi file to my Kindle for Mac - I can read the book on Kindle for Mac but the notes I took on the Kindle Touch do not show up.

Is there a way to transfer the notes from the Kindle Touch so I can read them on Kindle for Mac? (I know about "My Clippings" and that is NOT what I need")

Thanks!
