David, For someone who does not use windows any more, those were very good instructions. There is only one problem, Even though my device says the book is downloaded, the tree view for Kindle which I arrived at by following your instructions is blank. Interesting in that other apps have items in the tree view, but not Kindle. So, you have gotten me to the right place,. I think, perhaps, the Kindle app is doing something strange here. I'm not asking you to tell me what is going on. You have answered my question. But it is most curious.

On the Mac, the process is slightly different. As it has been a couple years, I cannot provide exact instructions for Windows iTunes. When you are in the main list, you down-arrow to the iPhone selection. Press tab to get to a series of radial buttons. Each radial button is for a different aspect of your iDevice. Since you want to move books from an app on your iDevice to your computer, you need to select the apps radial button by pressing either space or enter on it (I think). You then tab to the information area. Tab through the columns until you find the table which says something about transferring information between certain apps and your computer. Find the app that has the information you desire in the table. With the app highlighted, tab to the button that tells iTunes to show the information in the app. Find the information (book in this case) that you want to transfer to your computer and find the information you select to tell Windows where to save the book.

"When syncing your iPhone with iTunes, go into the apps radial button. You will find a list of apps which let you exchange files.

I can find the list of apps, but I have no clue how to transfer them other than by syncing the phone and iTunes. Is this what you meant? If not, could you elaborate please? Thanks.

If I delete if from the phone, it will likely delete it from iTunes assuming I have synced it. Am I better off downloading books directly to my computer where I can place the ones I have read in a particular folder? Or, are there other ways to make sure I have a permanent copy of the book? Example, is there a place in iTunes where the book is stored such that I could make a copy of it? Thanks much.
