If you have files on your computer that you need on your Kindle Paperwhite, you can transfer these with ease. Although e-mailing or sending a document to your Kindle Paperwhite is fast and easy, connecting your Kindle via USB cable and transferring books via drag-and-drop is simple too.

Both Macintosh and Windows users can download and transfer Kindle content and personal documents from their computers to their Kindles through the USB connection. When the Kindle is plugged into a computer, it appears as a removable mass-storage device.

Plug one end of that USB cable into a Mac and the other into a Kindle, and the Kindle will announce it’s entering USB Drive Mode. A new volume, called Kindle, will appear on your Mac. You can open it up and see the files inside. The key folders inside the Kindle volume are audible, documents, and music. Bluetooth file transfer is a simple way to send files to another nearby Bluetooth device without the need for a separate app. Bluetooth is compatible with smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers. Files can be transferred over Bluetooth using Android OS, Fire OS, Blackberry OS, Windows OS, Mac.

To transfer files via USB cable, your computer must meet the following system requirements:

  • PC: Windows 2000 or later

  • Macintosh: Mac OS X 10.2 or later

  • USB port: An available port or an attached USB hub with an available port

To connect your Kindle Paperwhite to your computer:

  1. Plug the larger end of the USB cable into an available USB port or a powered USB hub connected to your computer, and connect the other end of the USB cable to the micro-USB port on the bottom of the Kindle Paperwhite.

    When connected to the PC, the Kindle Paperwhite goes into USB drive mode and its battery is recharged by the computer. Wireless service is temporarily shut off. The Kindle isn’t usable as a reading device while in USB drive mode but returns to your reading location when you eject the device from your computer.

  2. When your Kindle Paperwhite is connected, simply drag and drop (or copy and paste) the file from your computer’s hard drive to the Kindle Paperwhite.

    For e-books, make sure to place the file in the Documents folder on the Kindle Paperwhite. If you put the file in the root drive, it won’t appear on the Home screen of your Kindle Paperwhite.

If your file is in a Kindle-compatible formats, you can transfer it directly from your computer to your Kindle Paperwhite via USB. To transfer the files, follow these easy steps:

  1. Connect your Kindle Paperwhite to your computer using the USB cable.

    Your computer recognizes your Kindle Paperwhite when it’s plugged in and displays the Kindle Paperwhite as a removable drive. If you go to my Computer (PC) or Finder (Mac), your Kindle Paperwhite appears as a drive.

  2. Double-click the drive to open it and view the folders on your Kindle Paperwhite.

  3. Open another window and navigate to the file(s) you want to transfer to your Kindle Paperwhite.

  4. Drag the file(s) to the appropriate folder on your Kindle Paperwhite.

    Place your text and documents files in the Documents folder on your Kindle Paperwhite.

    You can also use the Copy and Paste commands to move documents to the documents folder.

  5. Eject your Kindle Paperwhite from your computer:

    • On a Windows 8 PC:Right-click the Kindle drive icon and choose Eject. A notification that it is safe to remove the device from the computer appears.

    • On a Windows Vista or Windows 7 PC, choose Start→Computer, and then right-click the Kindle drive icon and choose Eject. You can also left- or right-click the Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media icon in the lower-right corner of the taskbar.

    • On a Mac, Control-click the Kindle device icon and choose Eject.

    The files you transferred are displayed on your Home screen and are available for you to view on your Kindle Paperwhite.

Your Kindle Paperwhite cannot read files that are protected with DRM. If this is the case, you see an error message when you try to open the e-book. Before buying books from sources other than Amazon, make sure that the file is compatible with your Kindle Paperwhite.

Sideloading describes the transfer of files directly from one device to another. Uploading and downloading are terms that are commonly used to describe transferring files to or from an Internet server. What we’ve described here is sideloading.

People can read Amazon Kindle books on Kindle eReaders, Kindle Fire tablets as well as other smart devices with Kindle apps installed. Generally, once a device is registered to an Amazon account, all Kindle books under that account will be synced automatically with Internet connected.

However, if we want to read non-Amazon books on Kindle or purchased Kindle books do not shown on the device due to a connection problem, we will have to transfer books from computer to Kindle manually. This guide will tell you how to transfer books to Kindle, Kindle Fire (HD), Kindle Paparwhite, Kindle for Android/iPad app from PC or Mac.

Step 1. Make sure your personal books are MOBI format(drm free)

Amazon Kindle does not support EPUB books, but supports MOBI (DRM-free) and PDF formats. I personally prefer MOBI to PDF because the former is more flexible and better for reading.

But most of books we downloaded from torrent sites are often EPUB files. If you want to transfer these books to Kindle for reading, the perfect solution is converting them to Mobi.

And If you want to transfer eBooks purchased from Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Sony or other stores to Kindle, things will be a little tough. These books are typically DRM protected so we can't directly convert the formats. Instead, we have to strip the DRM restrictions first. DRM-protected PDF books also have to be decrypted because Kindle only supports DRM-free PDF.

In a word, before transferring files to Kindle, we should comfirm 2 points: Files are DRM free; files are Kindle Mobi format.

Step 2. Transfer books to Kindle, Kindle Fire(HD) and Kindle apps from computer

Once the books are open MOBI or PDF, we can easily transfer them from PC/Mac to Kindle, Paperwhite, Kindle Fire (HD), Kindle for Android / iPad app with USB or wirelessly.

3Select the item you want to transfer (mobi or pdf).

4Copy books to the folder (documents) under Kindle drive.

5Or you can also use the Send-to-Kindle email address.

For each case below, I mainly explain how to transfer MOBI eBooks to Kindle with USB, which also works on PDF docs. To transfer books to Kindle without a USB cable, you should first find out the device email address (mentioned in each case), then send your books to the given device/app address.

1. Transfer MOBI/PDF books to Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite and other Kindle E-ink readers

Here I take the Kindle Paperwhite for example.

1 Connect the Kindle device to computer with the USB cable. It will be recognised as a 'Kindle' drive.

2Drag and drop the MOBI books to the 'documents' folder under Kindle drive.

3 Eject Kindle from computer. The loaded books will display under 'Device' shelf.

Send-to-Kindle E-mail Address of Kindle Paperwhite:

Tap the menu icon (top right corner) from the home screen, then 'Settings' -> 'Device Options' -> 'Personalize your Kindle' -> 'Send-to-Kindle E-mail'.

For conventional Kindle, select 'Settings' from the home screen menu and use the Next page and Previous Page buttons to get the Send-to-Kindle E-mail.

2. Transfer MOBI/PDF books to Kindle Fire and Kindle Fire HD

Here I take the Kindle Fire for example.

How to transfer MOBI or PDF books to Kindle Fire or Kindle Fire HD with USB:

1 Connect your Kindle Fire (HD) to computer with the USB cable and it will be recognized as a Kindle drive.

2 Copy and paste your MOBI books to the 'Books' folder under the Kindle Fire (HD) Drive.

3 Check the transferred books by tapping 'Books' (on the top menu bar) then 'Device'.

Send-to-Kindle E-mail Address of Kindle Fire:

Tap the top right corner, select 'More..' -> 'My Account' to get the device email address.

Note that Kindle Fire (HD) does not come with a USB cable. If you don't have a USB cable, get the Send-to-Kindle email address of the Kindle Fire and transfer MOBI or PDF books to it wirelessly.

3. Transfer MOBI/PDF books to Kindle for Android app

Here I take the Nexus 7 for example.

1 Connect your Android tablet or smart phone to PC.

4. Transfer MOBI/PDF books to iPad / iPod / iPhone Kindle app

There is no way to directly transfer MOBI books to Kindle iPad / iPod / iPhone app with iTunes. In this case, we can use Kindle email system to send personal MOBI books to the email address of Kindle for iPad app. PDF files can be transferred to iPad with iTunes (opened with iBooks by default) or with Kindle for iPad email address (opened with Kindle for iPad app by default).

Send-to-Kindle E-mail Address of Kindle for iPad app:

Tap the gear icon in the bottom right corner and select 'Send-to-Kindle Email Address'.

5. Transfer MOBI/PDF books to Kindle wirelessly (without a USB cable)

As long as we know the email addresses of the Kindle devices or apps, we will be able to send DRM-free MOBI and PDF books to Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Fire (HD), Kindle for Android / iPad app wirelessly.

1Add your own (sender) email address to Kindle Approved Personal Document E-mail List.

Visit Manage Your Kindle to sign in, go to 'Your Kindle Account' from the left side menu and select 'Personal Document Settings'. Pay attention to the 'Approved Personal Document E-mail List' and select 'Add a new approved e-mail address.' Enter your e-mail address then click 'Add Address.'

2. If your purchased Kindle books are not auto synced due to the Internet issue, you can download the books to your computer (Amazon site -> 'Manage Your Kindle' under 'Your Account' - > 'Your devices and content; - > 'Deliver to my..' -> 'Download and transfer via USB') to download the books to your computer. The downloaded books are typically AZW3. Transfer them to your Kindle device or app according to steps above.

That's all. This guide is based on Windows OS, but it also works if you want to transfer books to Kindle from Mac. As long as the books are not protected and converted to Kindle supported formats (MOBI or PDF), we will be able to read eBooks from other sources without confining to Amazon.
