Sideloading to kindle, synching to cloud?
Hey guys, I am using Calibre to sideload .mobi files to my kindle. This is working great!
However, I would LOVE for 1) books I side load to the kindle to also get added to the kindle ap on my iphone. 2) When the books are on both devices, for amazon to whispersync between the kindle/iphone and save my place. Is this possible? Thanks! |

Are you using calibre to basically copy a file from your computer to your Kindle. If so, then no it cannot be Whispersynced with another device. If you are using calibre to send the file to the Amazon Cloud, assuming calibre can do that, then yes the book can be downloaded and Whispersynced to multiple devices including your iPhone. The key here is that the book must be sent to the Amazon Cloud, not directly to the Kindle.

Calibre might be able to do it, but I'm not sure about that. But you can use the Send To Kindle app available from Amazon for free. Download it to your computer, drag and drop your books into it, and they go directly to the Cloud. You can also email books to the Cloud using the email address assigned to your Kindle or other device. This email address is in the MYK pages somewhere. They just redesigned them so I'm not sure where they put it.
ETA: Send To Kindle for PC and Send To Kindle for Mac. Last edited by jswinden; 01-23-2014 at 04:03 PM. |

You can use your kindle email address to send books to Kindle Personal Document service from Calibre:

Just look for the Personal Documents settings if the above link leads you astray. Last edited by JimmyR; 01-23-2014 at 04:14 PM. |
