Use copy and paste.

For one book it says it's doing two jobs but a half an hour later nothing. It used to be on my Fire that once I plugged it in I'd hit the power button, slide the button on the screen and it'd connect and the screen would say some message (can't look to see what it is, it was stolen back in October) and then I could transfer books. With my HDX I don't get that message.
Connect the HDX 2013 with a USB cable to the PC. Then use copy and paste to drop the files into the correct folder on the HDX.

After that move you may be able to use Calibre to access the files on the HDX.
