BACKUP FILES

Hi

Am trying to find the default location where purchased books are stored, of Sony Reader Libary software as supplied with E Book.
Want to back up the purchased books to a external hard drive.

Thank you for the help.

Regards

John

It depends on your computer operating system. On my Windows XP computer the location is:

c:\My Documents\My Books\Reader Library

When you open a book in the Reader Library, click the "i" icon on top - it will show you the full path to the book file.

On my Mac OS X computer the default location is very similar:

Documents\My Books\Reader Library

I dragged the "Reader Library" folder onto My Places in the Finder window so that I always have quick access to it.
