If you have not turned your Sony e-Reader on for awhile, when you boot it up and connect to WIFI you should see an update notification. You can drag your finger down at the very top of the screen to see the update. If you click on it it will ask if you want to download it. It is around MB in size, so it should take a few minutes to completely download.

Once it does, you can access the status menu again and click on the update. This time, it will ask if you want to install it. The program will prompt you to pick your region. Click the region appropriate to you.

The Reader for PC software should then open. Once the home page loads, connect the Reader to your computer. The Reader will ask you if you want the computer to recognise this device?

You are now ready to download books to the device. If you wish to download eBooks directly to your device, you must follow the procedure outlined in steps above.
