Adding Collections from Another Kindle

If you have more than one Kindle registered to your Amazon account, you can add the collections from another Kindle and
merge them with collections on your current Kindle. This is useful if you've set up an organization system on another Kindle
and you want use it on your current Kindle. The new collections will appear in Home on your current Kindle. Kindle books
from the other device can be manually downloaded from Archived Items and they will appear in Home.
For example, suppose you have two devices named Tom's Kindle and Judy's Kindle. If Tom's Kindle already includes some
collections, you can copy those collections and merge them with the collections on Judy's Kindle. After you copy the
collections from Tom's Kindle to Judy's Kindle, then both devices will have the same collections.
If Tom's Kindle included "Marley & Me" in the "Summer Reading" collection, and "Marley & Me" was already on Judy's
Kindle when collections from Tom's Kindle were added, "Marley & Me" will automatically appear in "Summer Reading". If
Tom's Kindle included "The Lost Symbol" in the "Summer Reading" collection, and if you download "The Lost Symbol" from
Archived Items onto Judy's Kindle, it will automatically appear in Home.
Note that if you later decide to remove "Marley & Me" from the "Summer Reading" collection on Tom's Kindle, your changes
are not synchronized with Judy's Kindle. "Marley & Me" will remain in the "Summer Reading" collection on Judy's Kindle.
