Kindle fail?
6/27/19

This week I have purchased several books on Kindle. Emails report they have been delivered but they have not shown up.

Anyone else having problems with Kindle?

I have never had that problem. I bought a book just a couple of days ago.

I have that particular trouble before and spoke with Amazon customer service by online chat.

As I recall, they had me delete the book from my Kindle and then reload it again directly from my Amazon account.

Just took a few minutes.

There are so many different versions and devices that it’s almost impossible to answer your question.

A few (2-3) times books have been very slow to be delivered (1-3 Hours). Never had a book not been delivered at all. This is based on my orders of the last five years

When I buy on Amazon I have to be careful that it’s being delivered to the correct device (for some reason, default is my wife’s tablet) . Did you check that?

I hope they have some customer service email or phone number.

I think the best approach is to get in touch with them directly.

They should be able to help you, that’s why they are there.

Good luck.

My thought too. I own more than one kindle and sometimes books get delivered to the wrong one unless I specify it to be delivered to the correct one. I just got to the kindle content and have it delivered to the one I want. You can do that from your account.

How old is your Kindle? And is it up to date with the latest firmware?

My wife's is a first-generation, and they stopped supporting updates via wi-fi and whispernet for hers. We had to go to Amazon.com to get the update, hook the Kindle to computer, and load the update that way. Otherwise, without the update, the Kindle wouldn't be able to download new purchases.

Same problem here, my wife’s tablet is the default. You can get into the Amazon “manage account” area and change it ... but it changes back all by itself.

Check out my novella Haunting Whispers on Kindle. I’m a rank amatuer so don’t expect too much.
