There are only three ways to load books onto your Kindle: (1) download them from Amazon via an account (using Wifi or 3G connection), (2) email them to your Kindle the unique email address for your Kindle which is assigned to you by Amazon at the time of registration, or (3) download the ebook file from a computer using the USB cable.

To email books to your Kindle or to download them via USB cable you must know the location of the ebook (which is typically a .MOBI file) and you must be computer-savvy enough to be able to either attach the ebook file to the email or to copy it to the 'document' folder of the USB connected Kindle.

I want to buy a new kindle but am concerned about transfering my books to the new kindle.

Two methods.
First: A computer is required. Connect the old Kindle to the computer it should show up as a new drive. Open that drive and find the books. Transfer them to the computer. Plug in new Kindle and do the same only transfer the transferred books from the computer onto the new Kindle.
Two: If you purchased the books from sources like Amazon, your books are saved on their cloud. Simply connect your new device and download all your books again.

I bought the book on line and can't find it on my kindle

Books you buy on line go into your Kindle Cloud library. To get them onto your device, too, at the time of the purchase you must have your Kindle turned on and connected to Wi-Fi or Whispersynch which is another name for Kindle's 3G (cell phone) connectivity.

If you don't have your kindle listed as the default device, books won't automatically download to it. You will have to do it manually which means touching the Cloud on the home screen while connected to Wi-Fi or 3G and finding the book in your Cloud library. Touching the book will cause it to download onto your Kindle's local storage for anytime use.

I have a new kindle. Can I tranfer my books onto from my old one?

You can easily load all of your books onto your new Kindle. Amazon retains a record of all your book purchases in an archive. When you register your new Kindle (and turn on wireless) it 'phones home' to Amazon and Amazon places an entry on your main menu entitled Archive. Just click on that entry and all of your past book purchases will appear and will automatically be downloaded to the Kindle when you click on them.

However, if your old Kindle contained any books, pictures, or documents that you did NOT purchase from Amazon, those items will not appear in the Amazon archive. You will have to download those items to your new Kindle the same way you installed them on the old Kindle. If the only location of those un-archived documents is the old Kindle, then this will become a two step process because you cannot copy from one Kindle directly to another. Instead you must copy the documents off the old Kindle onto a computer using the USB cable, and then copy the books from the computer onto the new Kindle by way of the USB cable or by email using an authorized email account. (To authorize an email account for sending books to your Kindle, please visit Amazon's "manage my devices" section. If the new Kindle is not registered, or if it is blacklisted, then you cannot use the email method to transfer the books. The only way to install books on an unregistered Kindle is directly via USB cable.)

Sounds like your wife's kindle is registered in your name. You can find out by logging into your account on amazon. Up the top open your account window then scroll down and click on " Manage Your Devices". If your wife's kindle in on your account then you have to unregistered it from your account then see would register it in her name. She can do this while on her kindle table.

How do I access the books on my kindle from my ipad Kindle app?

You will need to download the Kindle app ( from the App Store ) on your iPad or iPhone. You can then access your account on Amazon and probably download whatever you have on the Kindle to those devices. I have it and it works great....never went back to the Fire.

I want to download book from cd to kindle

To transfer books from CD to your Kindle you will need to use a computer and connect your Kindle to that computer by USB then copy the books from the CD to the Kindle folder that you can find via Windows Explorer.

See the help information for Transferring files via USB on the Kindle Support web site for further details on doing this.
