Re-Run the Start Up Tutorial?

jacksonunit · 12-20-2013, 10:28 AM

I got my wife a Paperwhite for Christmas and I ordered it as a gift, so it came unregistered. I wanted to load a book she wanted on it so it would be there when she opens it, so I had to open the box and set it up. Question is this:

Is there any way to re-run the start up tutorial?

I think it's a great quick way to show the zones and such, but I can't seem to find any way to launch it.

Only by doing a "Reset to Factory Defaults", which will wipe all the content. You could always do that, and then load the book afterwards. If you've bought the book from Amazon, though, and you register the Kindle to your account, she can simply access it directly from the Kindle. Having all your Kindles registered to the same Amazon account is the best idea, so you can share books.

Thanks Harry. Kind of what I thought. I can probably tell her everything she needs to know. Plus, there's the help manual.
