Exporting Kindle Clippings with Klipps

You export your Kindle clippings by connecting your Kindle device to a computer and running Klipps.
Note: You can edit the default Klipps behavior by using dedicated arguments. For more information, see Accessing Klipps Help.

Before you begin

  • Ensure that you highlighted some quotes while reading on your Kindle.
  • Ensure that your Kindle is connected to your computer with a cable.
    Important: Some third-party USB cables may prevent your computer from correctly discovering your Kindle.

Procedure

  1. Download the latest Klipps version for your operating system. See Klipps Releases.
  2. Unzip Klipps.
  3. Double-click the downloaded Klipps executable.
    Result: Klipps opens in a Terminal window and tries to automatically detect the clippings file on the connected Kindle device.
  4. If a prompt appears, enter the clippings file path manually.
  5. If needed, accept every security prompt. See Accepting macOS Security Prompts or Accepting Windows Security Prompts.
    Result: Klipps exports the Kindle clippings file to an HTML file and saves the HTML file on your desktop.
  6. Close the Klipps window.

Next Steps

  • Safely eject your Kindle device from your computer.
