. I have never been this upset to lose a piece of electronics before. I really fell in love with it right from the start which is also a first for me.
I was looking for a better way to listen to mp3 files and came across this post:

I have moved my music files to the Audible folder and had the pleasure of listening to one track successfully when at the beginning of the second track my kindle suddenly froze. Obviously this wasn’t the first time it did that , so I tried holding the reset switch for 20 seconds, but nothing happened. I tried again and again each time for a longer time until my finger started to hurt.
I tried connecting to a computer but it wasn’t even recognized.
The next thing I tried was recharging for a few hours , again nothing happened , it would not reset . I also tried alt+g and some other key combinations that I don’t really remember right now.
Nothing.
At this point I guess I should have called support but I didn’t because I live in Israel and am about to fly in two days to costa rica where I would spend the next few months. I knew there was no way I could get it sent back to me in time for my flight.
So the next thing I did was to open the cover and remove the battery.
(I know this has revoked my warranty)
Oh how I wanted it to work…
It didn’t.
The screen stayed as frozen as it was. I waited a few more hours with the battery removed but there was no difference.
Just to be clear , I am not saying that moving the files to the audible folder caused the problem, it could of course be a coincidence, I just wanted to give all the information in case anybody has a clue as to what else I can do.
thanks
