Kindle Reset Instructions

Kindle

I love the blog “Free Kindle Books and Tips“. I find all kinds of great free books because of this site. I know that one of these days I’m going to need to know how to reset my Kindle and I’ll need to be able to find these instructions again.

Every now and then your Kindle may stop updating, or it won’t download the latest item you’ve added to your collection.

If this happens to you, you will need to reboot your Kindle. Here is how you do it:

 

 

  1. Click the “Home” button to get back to your home screen.
  2. Click the “Menu” button, and select “Settings.”
  3. You will see several options, but “reboot” is not one of those options. Press the “Menu” button again.
  4. You will have several options, but choose and click the “Restart” button.Once you do that, it will take about 1-2 minutes to reboot. Make sure your wireless is on, and the Kindle will go look in the Amazon store to see what is pending to be downloaded and viola! You should be back in business. If you ever need to restart your Kindle, I hope this helps!
