The external SD card does not show up on the Windows computer, so I can't transfer any files to it. Also, if I use ES Explorer app on the Kindle, I can see the SD card (shows as 28 GB free space), but when I try to do a very simple operation, such as create a new folder on SD card, I get an error message that says:
Please choose the root directory SD card (/storage/sd card) of ext SD card to grant ES permission to operate
I'm not sure what to do. There is a very small screenshot that appears on the Kindle to suggest how to solve this problem, but it is so small, that I can't read it.

To use ES File Explorer with the sd card, just follow directions. They may be a little confusing at first glance, but when you actually see it it makes more sense.
First screen - choose Select
Second screen choose Select "Storage Device" on bottom
If you don't see Storage Device on the bottom, you may need to tap the three lines in the upper left corner. Then your screen will look like this and you need to choose it here first and then it should show up like the previous screen.
