Add Mobi To Kindle App Mac Pro

I'm testing it, but seems that Amazon Kindle OS X floods the net of 'pings' to http://www.amazon.com/ping with something like 500 requests per second!

I imagine this is so the 'Whispersync' status is always up-to-date. It's nothing to worry about, and certainly not enough to eat up your bandwidth or anything, You're not paying for bandwidth by the kilobyte or anything, are you?

Double-clicking the mobi file never worked for me, but this hint saved the day and it transferred right into Kindle. Outstanding!

Add Mobi To Kindle App Mac Download

You do NOT need anything other than iTunes.
Hook up your iPhone, download the Kindle app from the App store, add it to the iPhone with a sync, then select the iPhone in iTunes to manage it. Select the Apps tab in iTunes for the iPhone. Scroll to the bottom half of the window (below the Sync Apps section) to the File Sharing section. Click once on the Kindle app in that list and there will be a Kindle Documents window on the right where one can drag/drop .mobi files directly into your library.
No need to hack the phone, manually go into hidden folders on the Mac or any other madness. Explore iTunes -- your options and solution are readily there.

The hint is about the OS X app, not the iOS app.
