To transfer the files, follow these easy steps: Connect your Kindle Paperwhite to your computer using the USB cable. Your computer recognizes your Kindle Paperwhite when it’s plugged in and displays the Kindle Paperwhite as a removable drive. If you go to my Computer (PC) or Finder (Mac), your Kindle Paperwhite appears as a drive. Move everything from an old Kindle to your new Kindle. If you have bought a new Kindle to replace an old one, the process of transferring all of your data is probably easier than you think.

I'm away and won't be home until tomorrow so I'm doing this from memory. The main issue is finding the 'My Kindle Content' folder which is buried somewhere.
The best way to do that is to go to Finder and search for it, and make an alias of the folder, either by highlighting the folder and doing 'Cmd-M' or selecting 'Make Alias' from the pop-up menu, and then dragging the alias to the desktop (or to your favourite locations list in the left side bar in a directory window). Make sure the aliased version is sorted by date, most recent first. (You only need to do this step once.) Go to 'Manage my content and devices' at Amazon, and locate your newly-purchased content. Again, it is useful to sort by date, most recent first. If you use collections in your Kindle app, it is useful to add the content to a collection as you can see which hasn't been added to one easily. Then select the content you want to download (10 items can be downloaded at once), and select 'Deliver' and make sure 'Kindle for Mac' is ticked in the list. You can make it your default device, but if you read on a phone or other portable device, that's not very useful. Now go to the Mac, and open up Kindle for Mac and do a sync. You may need to select individual titles and download them as well to make sure the number of titles on device matches the number in the cloud. Once you have done that, you just open up Calibre, select 'add books' and go to wherever you put the aliased 'My Kindle Content' folder. You'll notice a lot of files with the same gibberish name but different formats, but only one version of the file is not greyed out - the .awz3 version. Select those, and click the open button. Calibre then imports the files, which will include updated versions of previously imported files, which you can choose to redownload if you desire. Note that this only works if you don't have the most recent Kindle for Mac version installed (that's the version with KFX8 not AWZ3 book files). If you do, go to the Calibre forum here, and find the instructions for downgrading and make sure you don't have automatic updates checked. Hope this helps.

When you open chrome on your mac, you'll notice it's on the right side of your dock as an open item (to the right of the line of where your regular docked items are). Drag the chrome icon to the left of the line, press down on the pad until a menu bar pops up, go to options and choose 'keep in dock'. Hope this works for you as it did for me. Use the Dock on Mac. The Dock on the Mac desktop is a convenient place to access apps and features (like Siri, Launchpad, and the Trash) that you’re likely to use every day. The Dock can show up to three recently used apps that aren’t already in the Dock and a folder for items you download from the internet. Put chrome apps on mac dock.
