I wish I could connect my Kindle to my computer & sort it all out into folders...

[KatyMac]

...hopefully this is the point where someone tells me I can & explains how [hopeful?]

My dh does folders but i haven't a clue how

You can. Connect it using the charging lead. Click on my computer, select the kindle open it move things around and make folders the same as on your PC.

This might help - I didn't know you could organise the collections from the PC? (Not doubting you can, I just didn't realise).

I have definitlely done it, DH is an IT tech and looked at me like I was stupid and said that pretty much any connected device can be treated like an external hard drive on a PC ( except apple products).

Oh

Now I have lots of Icons; I have

Blue books
Yellow folders
funny icon

what do they all mean?

OK

Blue books = Kindle Content
Yellow folders = File FOlder
funny icon = AZW3 file

But what dos it mean?? & where are my collections?

& I seem to have the book that are in the cloud listed too (I wonder if there is a connection?)

I am pretty sure you can move those blue ones onto the folders and can make new folders to put them in. I have all my ou things in one folder, novels in one, non fiction in one and one for naughty novels.

I made a folder but I couldn't see it on my kindle
