Hi there!

I purchased a Kindle Keyboard second hand yesterday, and I'm a bit a disappointed as I cant connect it to my Mac to transfer books across! Can anyone help me? I want to take it away on an overseas trip and daydreamed about reading a ton of books whilst I was away.

I have connected it through USB, the orange light at the bottom is lit up, but it doesnt appear as a drive.

I have registered the Kindle, and it shows up on my devices list on the Amazon website. However, it doesn't show up on my Send to Kindle app.

I have rebooted my computer, and completed a hard reset but none of this has worked.

It doesnt come up as connected at all in Disk Utility.

I am on OSX 10.9.5 and my Kindle is a 2nd Gen 2.5.6. I have also tried a few different USB cords and on a different Mac with no luck.

I hope this has given enough information! Any ideas?
