How do I transfer and send files to my Kindle?

Depending on the Kindle’s model and software version.

First, if you own an Amazon Kindle device, you can transfer files directly to the device by connecting it to your computer via USB cable. If you own a Kindle device that is not compatible with this cable, or you own a Kindle app on another device, such as an iPad, you can transfer files by email.

If you choose this method, you will need to use Amazon’s free personal document email service. With this service, you can send any compatible document file–such as. PDF,. MOBI, and. AZW–directly to your Kindle as an email attachment.

To use the service, go to Amazon’s Manage Your Content and Devices page and locate the Kindle app or device on which you wish to send the file. Find the “Email Your Documents” option and then follow the instructions there to enter your Kindle email address in the “To” field and attach your file.

Amazon may also require you to enter your Amazon account password, so ensure you have that information handy.

As a third option, you can use a third-party cloud service such as Google Drive, Dropbox, or Microsoft OneDrive to transfer files to your Kindle. These services typically make transferring files easier, as you can connect your account to your Kindle and start transferring files without having to use the Amazon personal document email service.

No matter which method you chose to transfer and send files to your Kindle, be sure to check that the file type is compatible with the device or app before attempting to transfer the file.
