Using an SD Card
Q: I cannot insert my SD card. What should I do?
A: Make sure the SD card is facing the right way. With
the back of your Kindle facing you, insert the SD card
with its label facing up. Press the edge of the SD card
into the slot until you feel the card click into place.
Q: Why doesn’t my Kindle recognize my SD card?
A: Your SD card may not be formatted properly or it may
be corrupted. Use a PC card reader to verify the card’s
formatting. SD card formatting utilities are usually
available from the SD card manufacturer’s web site.
The Kindle Store
Q: I accidentally deleted a book I bought on the Kindle
Store. Can I download it again?
A: Yes. On your Kindle, go to the Home screen. On the
Home screen menu, select “Content Manager.” You
will see a list of all of the content you have purchased
from Amazon.com, whether or not it is currently on
your Kindle. Select the content you want to transfer,
and then select “Download” from the menu. Your file
should download to your device shortly.
Q: I bought something on the Kindle Store, and I don’t
see it on my device.
A: It sometimes takes a few minutes for the automatic
download to occur. If you want to download manually,
make sure your wireless connection is on, and then go
to the Home screen. Select “Settings” from the Home
screen menu, and then select “Update all” from the
Settings menu.
