Well, I'm not sure I can confirm the Amazon oddity. I can see all the books
on my Wife's Kindle reader just by plugging it in to my computer and there
they all are. I can copy them all to some place else as well. So I am
beginning to believe that Apple just doesn't want to have you able to do
this. Yet, the app is made by amazon. So who knows. My suspicion is that
this might be one of the things Amazon had to do in order to please Apple,
but that's just a hunch.

The bottom line is that the iPhone app behaves very differently in this
regard than does the kindle itself.

Actually if you think about it, Amazon did this intentionally. The only area
that you can get to is the Docs area through iTunes. One more DRM attempt.
So it's not actually a Apple oddity it's an Amazon oddity.

 

Just saying'

Hi, Raul and I had a go at seeing if we could find Kindle books in iTunes by
looking at the device, checking apps, and going to sharing to see what could
be saved to the computer. I don't know how this works on the Mac, but what
we discovered was that when we selected Kindle, the tree view was blank.
Actually, free books showed up, but the book he had just purchased and the
one I have did not show up at all. Other apps in the list had a populated
tree view and thus you got a save button and could put the items where you
wanted. However, the save button did not show up under the Kindle tree view
if the books you had on the device were purchased.

 

Just another little Apple oddity.
