I've been thinking of getting one of these. I have the older kindle with the buttons and I read books on it every day. Just don't know if I'll use it for more then books. I got an android phone and it's been aggravating. I've been trying to download the Amazon app store all day and it won't download.

Got my husband a Kindle for Christmas and trying to teach myself and him to use it. Am finding all posts very interesting and helpful. I e-mailed my self all the post that were informative for later use. Thanks all for the tips so far, keep them coming.

I have a kindle fire and have downloaded a few books, but can someone please tell me how to save them to the cloud? Right now they just show up on the main screen.

If you tap on the picture of the book and hold it, a list will pop up. One of the listing is "remove from device". Tap that and it will take it off your device and it will go onto your cloud. You then have to do the same thing again only tap remove from carousel". That is the way you do it on mine.

Try patchwork nd quilting books there is a wide selection and if you put the kindle on your main computer you can print the patterns and templates.

Hi there! One thing you can do is join Book Bub. LOTS of FREEBIES! You set it up for the types of books that you want to receive (there are all types, and you can choose a lot of different types). Each day, you receive an email with the books for that day. Some are FREE, and some at a minimal cost. You can set it up to where the books download to your home computer, then you can transfer them to your Kindle when you want to read them so there won't be so many on it at a time. I can transfer them to my tablet (or Kindle in your case) as needed. I highly recommend it, as there are always great FREEBIES daily.

Has anyone discovered a good book on how to manage your kindle. I'm pretty sure I'm going to get a kindle as soon as I can find a sale. I'm leaning toward the HDX because it's supposed to be really fast. Just not sure if I'll know what to do with it after I get it. Does Amazon still have a history of your books if you use the tablet. I'm wondering why you would move the ones you've read to cloud and I had no idea you should delete it from cloud if you want to save space. I'm totally confused and I haven't even bought one yet.

Robert Kaufman has an app for figuring out measurements for quilt borders and bindings. Love it.
