Free file downloads via USB?

"You also have the option of having the converted file sent back to you via email and you can transfer it to the Kindle yourself with the USB cable"

I have NOT been succesful in downloading readable files to my Kindle 2 using USB cable. These files were sent to me through the XXX@freekindle.com process that permits free file conversion and transfer to Kindle 2 device. Sending via e-mail works fine. Is anyone else having this issue?

A common issue with tranferring Kindle files by USB cable is knowing that they must be put into the "documents" folder on your Kindle drive (not the "ebooks" folder). Perhaps that is the problem.

Can you be more specific? What are you doing... what happens? What doesn't work?

I WAS NOT INITIALLY AWARE THAT THE E-BOOK DOWNLADS HAD TO BE PLACED IN THE KINDLE DOCUMENTS FILE TO BE VIEWED ON THE DEVICE. THEY WERE STILL IN MY E-BOOK FILE WHEN I COULD NOT READ THEN ON THE KINDLE. THANKS FOR THE CORRECTIVE ADVICE.

Avoid writing in all upper case letters, not consider as a good manner on internet. Just a friendly reminder.
