Thanks for your helpful comments.

I was using the kindle previewer app on the laptop, not the kindle for pc/mac, which I think is simply a reading app. As I understand it the previewer allows you to see your book as it would appear on the Kindle Fire HD, HDX or HDX 8.9.

I have created an internal TOC using the option in tools but hadn't appreciated that this is working on a new stylesheet...that would have caught me out. It didn't crash and works well. (Incidentally I have discovered that if sigil crashes it may corrupt the previously saved file, so I now always save a second copy, under a different filename.)

I was using the send to kindle option that appears in finder (mac equivalent of file manager), which sends the file up to Kindle HQ, to be sent back down to the kindle via wifi. Long winded but for some reason side loading to the kindle app on the iPad using the iTunes app wasn't working for my .mobi files. I am hoping that having produced a .mobi file with kindlegen, the send to kindle process wouldn't change the file in any way.

I will try your suggestions of dropbox or email.

Peter
