And yes - some apps that worked on the HD no longer work on the HDX.

ok i finally got the explorer + dtop box link to work with a couple of test books but it was not intuitive. a lot of " you cannot paste tht here"... my 32GB HDX seems to have 2 storage areas (sdcard? ) locations but one is empty ?. and you can't paste directly into into books library you have to navigate & paste into some storage location. HDX has "libraries" I guess they are meta folders like in win 7, so you cannot add to them directly ?

Plus searching a big calibre dropbox library via es explorer is messy. I am using copy to clipboard followed by navigate some more & then paste.

so would I be better off with a different cloud app & populate it with calibre send to folder option for a flat file structure. We are using up the 5gb free amazon cloud drive for photos so I'd prefer to find some other freebie for my mobi/azw books
