ebook1150 bookshelf

[lvd4]

Both my husband and I, each, have an ebook1150. I purchased IMP format books from fictionwise. Is there any way I can get some of the ebooks I have on my bookshelf onto his ebook? So far, I can't see that I can copy the *.imp files from my bookshelf to my PC.
Thanks and I hope this is the right forum. I have searched but didn't find anything?

Not if they were purchased from www.fictionwise.com as Secure OEBFF .imp files, meaning they are encrypted to your EBW1150's internal serial number and cannot be read on any other EBW1150.

If they are un-encrypted, then each .imp can be downloaded from your www.fictionwise.com My Bookshelf (choose the OEBFF Half VGA format) and saved onto your hard disk in the eBookwise/GEBLibrarian bookshelf directory (or impserve shelf directory). Then use either program to transfer them onto your husband's EBW1150. By the way, eBookwise/GEBLibrarian is no longer being sold but the freeware impserve is available here. (be sure to visit the ebookutils homepage for the latest impserve version 0.8!)

Note that www.fictionwise.com offers a Bulk Download of your ebooks which can be used to save a local .imp copy on your hard drive for your own use.

So far, I can't see that I can copy the *.imp files from my bookshelf to my PC.
