Here is the message in full:



There is a "downloads" folder in documents, to which, as an experiment, I have added some books. There is no change in how viewing these documents is done after the device is disconnected. It is not the way I plan to add books, however. Also, I should note that this message in no way prevents me from adding more books the usual way (via Calibre). Also there is something like 4G free space on the device, so I find it very annoying that this message appears.

Yes it is merely an annoyance easily dealt with. I am just wondering if any of you programming geniuses have a way to silence it!

Thanks!
It is a for-real warning message.
Keep in mind this is Windows/FAT32 which, depending on options set when created, has limits on size and count of files.
That includes directories.


Note: The Kindles have a "flat world view" of the user USB storage area.
It does not recognize the file tree structure.
So moving books to sub-directories of /Documents will not change how the Kindle lists them.


Note: Not so with KOReader, KOReader recognizes the directory tree structure.
