Sync'ing collections
I have collections set up on my Paperwhite and wish to have them also appear in my Kindle PC app.

When I click on the Import Collections button in the app it opens a window asking me to select the device from which to import. But there is no device listed.

I have tried this with the PW Wi-Fi on, and with the PW connected to the computer via USB cable. But the PW doesn't show up in the device window. What am I missing here?

Kindle for PC uses an old style of collections that is incompatible with the "cloud collections" supported by newer devices.

Thanks, jhowell. Is there any likelihood of the app being updated to allow this?

We don't know, however I understand there is a way of updating the cloud collections from the Manage Your Kindle pages on the Amazon site. That is being rolled out at present
