update available for ebook question

fritzmom · 06-06-2018, 08:59 PM

Hi All

I've been downloading from my Amazon.ca content to My Kindle folder on my PC, via the Kindle Library 'app' on my Desktop, and converting to epub via Calibre (adding ebooks from My Kindle folder).

My question is, when there is an UPDATE AVAILABLE for an ebook that I have purchased, how do I get the update into My Kindle folder on PC and in Calibre? This is for ebooks that I have already downloaded to my PC and converted via Calibre. Ebooks not yet downloaded I'm not worried about.

I've done a couple of updates then checked the Kindle Library (on the PC) and those ebooks don't show as 'new' or 'updated'.

Is it possible to get the updated version saved on my PC and in Calibre?

Thanks for your help
Barb
