I think there are 2 things here. The Kindle for PC app and the Kindle for iPhone app. The Kindle for iPhone uses .mobi format files. I don't read books on my computer. I had the Kindle for PC app on my computer and uninstalled it because I never used it. I wasn't willing to sit here just to listen to a book when I could carry it around with me. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bryan Schulz

 Hi Alan, That's awful large for an Ebook.  Kindle books have a file
 extension of.mobi.

Hi, Alan. I only have a couple of Kindle books but they are on my PC with azw extensions and one is 15MB and the other is 26MB. I assume this is their 
 original and complete format so I'm not really sure what you mean. The
 filenames are a bit cryptic since they contain no title but just a book
 number. I don't disagree with your assessment of the Kindle for PC program
but it seems once you've downloaded it, Amazon keeps track of that and gives you the option to save a new Kindle purchase to either your iDevice or your 
 PC. At least it did for me.
There was a pretty good thread on this issue from Neal Ewers a while back 
 but I guess you missed it.

   Alan, I'm talking about storing the books on your computer in their
origenal format not as a book number. You've paid for the book so why can't you keep it on your computer and back it up to DVDEs in the origenal format. 
 I had the Kindle reader accessible version on my computer and didn't think
 much of it.

Actually, if you have the Kindle for PC program installed, Amazon should give you an option to download the Kindle book to your PC or your iDevice. I 
 have a folder called My Kindle Content that has Kindle books in it. Of
course, they are named with numbers so you can't tell what they are by title 
 but they are on my PC.

What I don't like about the Kindle app is, your books get stored in the Kindle cloud. You can either store them on your device or in the cloud but you cannot store them on your computer. That means you cannot copy them to 
 your external hard drive.  The cloud is fine as long as you have access to
 it.

       So, only certain kindle books are able to be shared? How do you know
 which ones?

       Good morning, all.

       I've started using the Kindle app for IOS. I've heard from a few
 people that it's possible to loan books to other people who also use the
 app. However, I haven't been able to figure out how to do this. Might
 someone be able to tell me how?

       Any help would be appreciated.
