How to change default download location to SD card?

Hello,

I could not find the thread to change default download location to SD card.

I have fetched news through calibre and downloaded them with calibre sharing over the net (wireless).
In this case, they always have been downloaded to internal memory not sd card.

I would like to download to sd card with wireless connection of calibre.

Please help and thanks in advance.

If your Device is "Paperwhite", why are you posting an Aura H20 question? It reads like a calibre question anyway.

With KOReader on my Aura HD, I place calibre content, from the server, onto my external uSD card. I mount my mmt/sd as read/write when I launch KOReader from KSM.

You should be able to set calibre to use a folder on your device's external uSD card, but for wireless, you need your device to establish a download folder.

Luck;
Ken

Anything downloaded over WiFi to a Kobo device will be downloaded to the internal memory unless there is not enough space on it. Then it will download the file to the external SD card.

Slight correction, it should read: "Anything downloaded over WiFi to a Kobo device" - with only the stock software installed - "will be downloaded to the internal memory unless there is not enough space on it." If you add KOReader and remount the external uSD card as Read/Write you can put it anywhere you want it.

Luck;
Ken
