When I install Kindle for PC, a content folder (My Kindle Content) is created in the My Documents folder. At work, My Documents maps to a home drive and I can only keep quite a small quantity of data on there. I would like to change the My Kindle Content location to be on my local hard drive. I can't find a way to do this through the UI, does anyone know of another way of doing this?

This should be pretty easy... But not straight away. I just downloaded and installed Kindle for PC and under When I went in to it, the button was disabled and it did not allow the folder to be changed. All I did was log in to the kindle website and try to push a book from my archive (a dictionary that was delivered on the Ipad), it said delivered, I then went to the application and clicked the refresh button. For some reason, it did not send the dictionary and I do not have it in the Kindle, but shortly after this, I went back in to options and the button was enabled. I do not have a clue what step enabled it or why it was disabled in the first place, but I hope this helps you]

Whether or not it's enabled requires selecting content. That is, you have to be in Library view, select All Items on the left, then open Tools -> Options -> Content and voila! Button enabled. This is terrible interface design, but at least we've figured it out. (Incidentally, if you later open up a book for reading, and go to Options, it's disabled again. At least they're consistent...?)

Use You can change the location by editing the I needed to change it since I hate having anything other than my OS on my SSD. The last thing I need is Kindle lowering the life expectancy of my SSD (it's also only 30GB!) and I was quite annoyed that it didn't give me the option to install everything onto my 1TB SATA drive. | ||||
