Sending a book from email
Hi guys,
I don't have the right USB cable so I tried to email an ebook. I received the email and downloaded the file, while still in the email, when I try to open it, it says "Unable to find viewer for application/x-mobipocket-ebook". I deleted the PDOC tag also. If I close the email, there's no trace of the book anywhere. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? I just got the Fire over the weekend and found Calibre this morning, so I'm pretty green still, I've spent a while looking for an answer, obviously, not quite long enough. Thanks in advance for any advice. |

When you registered your Fire, you should have received an email address from Kindle. Goto setting, then my account and you should find it there. ******@kindle.com
Just email your book to that address and it will show up shortly on your Fire. |

I use either method then use File Expert to add the books to my Book shelf by opening them with the Kindle app. |

Thanks so much, both of you. I'll give those suggestions a shot as soon as I get off work.
