I've been downloading books this way for a long time. My kindle now has a name, I select the "transfer via computer" in the purchase options, then tell it where I want to read in (in my named kindle), then a box pops up giving me the option to save the file, which I do. This goes to my computer desktop. I then put this, via usb into the 'documents' file on my kindle.

What normally happens is that the book then shows up on my kindle AND on my kindle 4 pc (all my kindle books eventually show up there).

This time, however, the book just isn't visible on my kindle.

I bought another set of books at the same time (The Mouse That Roared series) and had no problems with this.

I've decided to return the book for refund, giving the reason as 'downloading problems'.
