![]() Transfer books via e-mailĪll you have to do is just email the book as an attachment to your Kindle device. It’s our good old e-mail or via the Send to Kindle website. However, there exists an even simpler way to transfer your books. A recommended way to do that is by using the ‘Send to Kindle app’ which you can download, and have installed on your device, especially if you need to transfer books to your Kindle frequently. You can also use third-party e-book management software such as Calibre to transfer the e-books that you’d like to read on your Kindle.Īll of that is fine but what if it is just a single or only a few books that you want to transfer? Connecting cables and doing the transfer might have been okay if it is a whole lot of books or other material that you wish to move but definitely not if it is about just a few books. It can be like connecting your Kindle to a PC using a USB cable and manually transferring the book to the Kindle’s internal storage. So far so good but what if you have books, magazines, or documents from sources other than Amazon that you will also like to read via your Kindle? Fortunately, there are several ways to do it. The book gets delivered to the registered Kindle device automatically. You just have to visit the Kindle Store, choose the book you’ll like to read, and click on the ‘Buy’ button. It’s the simplest and most hassle-free manner to get all the content that you might ever need. If you wish to use the new format on your device, convert to azw3 instead of mobi." But it might work for you.With a Kindle device, it is the Kindle Store that should be the natural choice for sourcing all of your content requirements. If you really want to have the best of both worlds (storage in kindle cloud and azw3), you could try to convert to mobi with the mobi output settings in calibre to "both" or "new" which should create a mobi file that can be sent to the cloud and is as good as an azw3, but calibre warns "various kindle devices have trouble displaying the new or both mobi filetypes. I’ve never used azw, but as it’s an older format much like mobi, I think it’ll lose quality too. You can e-mail azw and mobi formats, but in my experience you lose quality when converting epub to mobi, sometimes a lot. But as far as I know, you can’t e-mail azw3 files to a kindle account. The azw3 may not always look completely identical to the epub, but it will be a good imitation.Į-mailing to your kindle account has the advantage that the book is safely stored in your kindle cloud. Works perfectly on my kindles (basic kindle & kindle paperwhite). I add my Dutch e-books, which are sold as epub without DRM, to calibre, convert them to azw3, and sideload (through a USB cable) the azw3 to my kindle with calibre. It’s just less hassle that, way, in my opinion.ĭo you have a preferred method for sending Epub ebooks to your Kindle account? Let us know in the comments! ![]() The reason I have never used calibre’s email feature is that I keep a copy of my ebook files in both Kindle and Epub, and I send the Kindle file to my Kindle account whenever I want to upload an ebook to my Kindle account. I have never used that feature, though, so I can’t tell you how well it works. This tool can even email your documents directly to your Kindle account. The ebook library tool calibre is fully capable of converting your ebook to and from Kindle, Epub, and other ebook formats. If that happens then your next best option will be to use calibre to convert the ebook so you can send it to your Kindle account. This means that Amazon will reject more complex Epub files if they are made of too many parts. I’ve tried it, and I found that Amazon will accept the ZIP file only if you have fewer than 25 files in the ZIP file. Yes, that does work – to a limited degree. Send a ZIP Fileįor example, eReader Palace brings our attention to the fact that you can send a ZIP file to your Kindle account. In other words, you can rename the Epub file by giving it a ZIP suffix and then email the ZIP file to your Kindle account. If your answer to that question is no then there are other options.
