Do you know, how to move ebook from main memory to SD/Sony card?

Thanks.

When you plug the reader in the computer three different drives will show up. One is the main memory and the other two are the sd cards. You can use Windows Explorer to move the files from main memory to sd card.

If you are using the eBook Library from SONY, it will show any card on the reader and any card on your computer as a mass storage device. Click on card to reveal any books on it then just drag to wherever you want them.

Thanks for help.

And do you know to do it in the Calibre?

Its easiest in windows I don't believe it is a feature of calibre unless you moved the files onto the other drive from the library or I suppose you could add them from the player but I don't think it will do a direct transfer.

Cut and paste is best.

Definately, cut & paste; from one "drive" to another. On my computer they show up as E, F, & G drives.

Does it work with ePub and lrx books?

It works with epub, but lrx has DRM so it might be more complicated.

As long as the reader is authorised it should work for an lrx book, but lrf, epubs and pdfs work fine.
