So, to download a book Holly just bought on her Kindle, I just select it in the Content Manager, and then select “Move to Kindle Memory” from the Menu. If Holly buys a book, it will automatically show up here.

In the Content Manager, some books are labeled “Kindle”, meaning they are in your Kindle, and some are labeled “Amazon”, meaning they are just in your Media Store. Just go to the “Content Manager” on the Kindle’s main menu. You can also buy books on the Kindle itself, and with that it works just as you would expect – the book goes to the Kindle you ordered it on, and to the Media Library, so it can be downloaded to either Kindle at a later time.įinally you can also get a copy of the book on the other Kindle without using the computer. There’s no option to send it to both Kindles, but once you’ve bought it, then it’s in your “Media Library” on Amazon, and from there you can send it again to either Kindle. So it gets sent to whichever Kindle you like. In the image to the right I’ve selected “Mick’s Kindle”. Then when you buy a book, or download a sample, you get a drop-down box that lets you choose which Kindle you want the book sent to. When you get the second Kindle, you just register it to the same account as the first one. However, if two people can share one Amazon account (at least, just for Kindle purchases), then they can share all their books between their two Kindle’s. One downside of e-books is that you can’t share a book with a friend. I recently got a Kindle, and Holly just had to have one too.
