Amazon really dropped the ball with the MYK page. They could make life so much easier if they wanted to (LOL). Multiple delete options, the ability to download a spreadsheet with title, author, purchase price, purchase date, et al.
Thanks, Blossom! |

A spreadsheet would be nice. The Shelfari does export to a TSV file so it's close to that. You can also browse the covers are see all the books you'll never read. Last edited by Blossom; 02-25-2013 at 08:32 PM. |

I just logged into my Shelfari account which I haven't used in years. Is there a way I'm not seeing to delete all of your books so you can start from scratch. I'm liking the idea of using it instead of checking MYK in certain instances. I have over 6,000 Kindle books and it takes a looong time to get it all loaded.

Go to List view then Bulk and you can select all that way and delete. Last edited by Blossom; 02-25-2013 at 08:28 PM. |

I'm just learning. I forget where I read about it allowing importing your purchases but I did this after I wanted to see the covers of the books and trying use it to organize my Calibre Library where I keep my backups. I didn't get very far with that but it does come in handy with exporting your books to a spreadsheet.

I'm sitting here watching Shelfari load my Amazon purchase history. I suspect this could take a while. Really curious to see what my total is.

Do they still make you go thru a bunch of hoops in order to download the TSV file?
they had this enabled, then decided you had to add friends, share on social media, do a bunch of annoying things, then you could get enough "points" to be able to download a file. |

I don't think the Shelfari thing's going to work for me. It's 60% or the way through importing and there's already a mile long list of titles under "Some of your books were not imported:". I'll let it play out and see if they can be imported after this batch, but there's no way I want to spend the time to add each one manually.

Nope. I don't have any friends or social media accounts connected, and I just selected "export your books" from the shelf drop down, it went to the account page and started downloading the file after a few seconds.
