Chapter 4 Getting More From Your Kindle
Reading Kindle documents on other devices
You can synchronize your Kindle books with other supported devices you own. Amazons
Whispersync technology keeps track of the last reading location in each book. For example,
you can read a few pages using the Kindle application on your iPhone, iPad, or Android device
and then pick up right where you left off when you return to your Kindle. For a complete list
of supported devices, go to www.kindle.com/support
Sharing comments via social networks
You can share your Kindle highlights with friends using social networks such as Twitter and
Facebook. To link your Kindle to your social network accounts, from the Home screen, tap the
Menu button and select Settings. On the Settings page, tap Reading Options, then tap Social
Networks. (This feature is not available in all countries.)
Loaning Kindle books
In many cases, you can share your favorite book with any friend who has a Kindle or uses a
Kindle application on another supported device. Each eligible Kindle book can be loaned one
time for up to 14 days. You cannot read the book yourself during the loan period. It is up to
the publisher or rights holder to determine which titles are eligible for lending.
To loan a book, go to the Manage Your Kindle page (accessible from www.kindle.com/support).
Borrowing Kindle books from your local library
You can check out a Kindle book from your local library and read it on any generation Kindle
device or free Kindle reading app.
When you borrow a Kindle public library book, you’ll have access to all the unique features
of Kindle books, including real page numbers and Whispersync technology that synchronizes
your notes, highlights, and last page read. After a library book expires, if you check it out
again or choose to purchase it from the Kindle Store, all of your annotations and bookmarks
will be displayed again. Note that library books can only be downloaded using Wi-Fi.
Kindle books are available at more than 11,000 libraries in the U.S.
Using Kindle with your computer
By connecting your Kindle to your computer via the supplied USB cable, you can add content
to the Kindle without a Wi-Fi connection.
Kindle uses Amazon Whispernet to deliver books, periodicals, personal documents, Kindle
Singles, blogs, active content, and audiobooks (the latter via Wi-Fi only) to your Kindle without
the need for a computer. Some Kindle content, such as MP3 files, must be downloaded
to your computer and transferred to your Kindle using USB. If Wi-Fi is not available at your
location, you can use the same procedure for audiobooks.
When you first connect the Kindle to a computers USB port, it will appear as an external
storage drive or volume on the computers desktop. You’ll see a directory or folder called
“documents.The “audibledirectory 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. See the Kindle Support website (www.kindle.com/
support) for more information on supported file types.
Kindle is not usable as a reading device while in USB drive mode. To read a book while
charging the battery, you must eject the Kindle from your computers desktop.
