To manually transfer content to your Kindle, connect the Kindle to your computer using a USB cable. Your Kindle will appear as a removable storage device. Open it and locate the 'documents' folder. Then, drag and drop your files (compatible formats include .mobi, .pdf, and .txt) into this folder. Safely eject your Kindle from your computer, and the transferred content should appear on your device. Ensure your files are not protected by DRM, as this will prevent them from being readable on your Kindle.
