Specifying one's U.S. Kindle address - where is it?

Dr. Drib · 01-16-2010, 06:31 AM

Amazon changed my address. There used to be a switch where one could toggle this back to the U.S. (I'm "visiting" Peru.) Here's their partial quote:

"If the country or region displayed is incorrect, you may change it at www.amazon.com/manageyourkindle."

My question is this: Where is the switch to toggle this back to the U.S.? I can't seem to locate it in "Manage Your Kindle."

Don,

About half way down the page, under the heading Your Country. This is just below Your Default 1-Click Payment and above Your pending Kindle subscriptions.

At least, that's what I am seeing. I can't be sure yours is the same.

Thanks, Mike, but for some reason it's NOW showing the U.S.

(I just downloaded the newest version of Firefox [aside: all my Add-ons have disappeared - Argggghgh!] - and Amazon is NOW correctly showing my U.S. address.

I don't know how it corrected itself....

Thanks for the help, however.
