Can anyone tell me where it saves the files?
In Snow Leopard when you downloaded to Kindle for Mac it saved them in a folder in Documents > Kindle Content. Now I can't find them.
I actually want to know this as well, after going through my folders, i can't seem to find where my Kindle books are stored in Lion..
Installed the version from the App Store, and am now golden.
Just tried the Kindle APP after reading this post mine seems to work fine, even purchased a book to make sure, no problems downloading.
Well, FWIW, I removed the install that I had, and reinstalled direct from Amazon. No dice.
Removed again.

I surfed the net and found an old version of the Kindle App at http://kindle-for-mac.en.softonic.com/mac/download (v1.2.4) and tried that. It works. Don't know why though.
I found a workaround
Grammy!!! Thank you!!! I got the previous version here, just now: http://kindle-for-mac.en.softonic.com/mac/download It didn't like my already established Amazon password, so I plugged in the new one it sent me and then clicked on Manage Your Kindle, which asked me to log in (the info was already filled in with my old password there). It accepted the old password and the two seemed to merge. So far okay. Under Preferences > Update, I unchecked the box next to "Automatically install updates when they are available without asking me."
A million thanks!!!!!!
