Easily move to Collection
Will someone please tell me how to move a book to a specific Collection on my Kindle 4 NT without using Calibre? Yes, I assume it's done locally.

It would be easier and faster for me to add a book to a Collection without having to reset my Kindle or manage my collection content with Calibre.

The answer to your initial query is, "because I want to".

I'm running Linux.

AFAIK the only other way to do it (besides Calibre) would be to create and manage the collections on the device.

As far as I know...


The link I posted above shows how to add, delete & manage collections on the device.

As, indeed, does the User Guide.

I guess he wants an app instead of that awful Calibre plugin. http://www.colegate.net/KindleCollectionManager/

Kindle for PC will let you sync your collections. You will need to have the books installed on your Kindle and in the Kindle content folder on your PC. I see your running Linux so I am not sure if Kindle 4 PC is supported but you can look into it.

Well that's a given, but I don't think most folks ever look at it.

Which is for Windows, not Linux. (Maybe it'll run under Wine???)
