8.2 Transferring Files from Your Computer

Managing Your Documents

If your Kindle is out of Whispernet coverage, you can still add content to it by connecting it
to a computer so that it acts as a USB drive. After your Kindle is attached to your computer
as a USB drive, you will see three default directories or folders. The one called "documents"
contains all of your digital reading materials like books, newspapers, your My Clippings file,
etc. The "audible" directory is for your audiobooks, and "music" is for your MP3 files. You can
add Kindle-compatible files to these directories, and you can copy, move, or delete the files
that are already there. The computer file formats that you can read or listen to on your Kindle
are listed below:
See "Downloading Content from Your Computer" in Chapter 9
transferring content you've already purchased to your device.
Tip: Mobipocket files must have no Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection
applied to be readable on your Kindle. If you purchased a Mobipocket file from a
Mobipocket retailer, you will not be able to open the file on your Kindle.

Transferring Your Clippings

Your clippings are stored in a file called "My Clippings.txt, " which is located in the "documents"
directory. If you want to copy the clippings from your Kindle to your computer so you can edit
them, e-mail a passage to a friend, or just archive your clippings, you can drag and drop the
"My Clippings.txt" file onto your computer. Clippings and other annotations are described in
more detail in Chapter 3.
