Where to find and store Kindle books on Mac? Have downloaded Kindle for Mac app and bought a book to try. Want to confirm that downloaded and not in Cloud (travel a lot and don’t want to count on Cloud) and size of book files. Want to decide if large and better to store book files on separate hard drive. Kindle Preferences says Content stored in User Name>Library>App Support>Kindle>My Kindle Content. Clicked Change and that is when the path appeared. If in Finder, open my kindle content and click on a book to see path at bottom, no path appears. that’s strange. If in Finder searchlight enter file name of book, something like B00BRZK102, it’s no where on my my MBP the path listed in Kindle Preferences for content storage does not appear in my Finder windows. first if in User Name, no Library. On my MBP page, if open Library>App Support, no Kindle or Kindle library. If use Searchlight in Finder don’t get anything on my hard drive for Kindle or Kindle Content, other than Kindle for Mac app. I can see that book is downloaded. Can read it. But can’t find where it is?

WHERE does iBooks save PDFs added to your Apple Books Library on your Mac? I'm using iBooks 1.5 on OS X El Capitan. (And iOS 13.3.1 on my iPhone.) I read somewhere that all files (both ePubs and PDFs) added to your Apple Books Library are saved in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books However, only a book I purchased a while ago and a Books.plist file are in that folder on my Mac. That Books.plist file does contain references to the PDFs I currently have in iBooks, including each PDF’s source path (where on my Mac the PDF was when I originally added it to iBooks), and their iBooks(?) path: ~/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~apple~iBooks/Documents/[filename.pdf] But opening "Mobile Documents" in Finder actually opens "iCloud Drive", and those PDFs are nowhere to be found in it! Thanks in advance for any useful information.

Delete in iMac - can't delete only locally In Books... in iOS if I click delete I can choose between deleting *locally* or everywhere. In OSX... the only delete option is to delete the book EVERYWHERE... including iCloud - and then it will be deleted from all other devices It happens that I only want to delete it from my Mac... and kept it in the cloud Anybody - any ideas? cheers Luis

I found some stuff in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books. The titles are not recognizable and the .png files inside I was unable to read, but at least it is a start.

Finder >> Go >> Go to Folder.

Copy the code below and paste it into the field. Then click Go.

~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books
