How do I move a book between accounts?

PeterMan · 12-25-2011, 10:05 PM

Hi

I bought my wife a Vox for Christmas and I set it up using my account prior to giving it to her so that I could do all of the updates and stuff. She just bought a book but had not switched to her newly created account first, so the book is in my library.

Can I move the book to her library or maybe move it to an external SD card and then import it into her library? I can't seem to find this information anywhere...

Thanks!

If it's a DRM-free book you can just download it from the website (while logged into your account, go here: http://www.kobobooks.com/library/reading.html) and side-load it onto her Kobo (open the Kobo app, go to the library page and press the menu button to see the option for importing content). If the book offers a DRM-free download you'll see the option to download listed as "Download ePub" rather than "Download Adobe ePub".

Otherwise, there's no easy way of doing it without downloading the Adobe ePub and removing the DRM. Maybe try calling Kobo support?
