I was able to purchase, and regularly use CC on my Fire HD6. Lately I've noticed that a lot of apps in the Amazon Appstore are incompatible with the older tablets...

Gene, are the books that you cannot find on your Fire, downloaded using the Overdrive app?

If that's the problem, they are probably in the Overdrive app. When you borrow a book using Overdrive, instead of downloading the book, you can have it sent to a device registered to your Amazon account. The book will appear in the carousel, and you can read the book on your Fire using the Kindle app instead.

Hope this helps!
