Q. I'm borrowing my friend's kindle and I'm trying to upload my own document to the kindle using USB port, but after i drag it into the file, it still doesn't show up on the kindle. Am I doing something wrong? Please help!
A. What format are the files in? The reader app only reads specific file formats - pdf and mobi being the primary ones.
Where do transfered documents go on the kindle?
Q. I transfered a word document to my kindle via usb cord, and i can't find where it went. Where does it show up?
A. Two things to consider:
1. What type of document. If you just transferred a Word file for example onto the Kindle, it won't recognize it. It has a limited selection of document file types it recognizes.
2. The Kindle is organized into folders. I believe a folder called Documents is where documents must be put, Music where music must be put. Anything else and I don't think it shows up.
Can you put books on your Kindle through your computer?
Q. I wanted to get the wifi only Kindle, because it's a lot cheaper than the one with 3g. I'm staying at my grandmother's house for the summer, though, and I can't seem to get a wireless connection on my other devices (PSP, ipod). I was wondering if you could buy books with the kindle for pc software, and then put them on your Kindle through usb. ?
A. Yes, Kindles come with a USB cable. Instructions can be found here:
