I love buttons.  Touch screens and I just have issues although I'm getting used to them. Thanks for the tips. Part of my problem is the 'sync across all kindles'. I have 7 or 8 kindles linked to my account (not all are mine) plus an account linked to mine by a family member (another Fire). When I select COLLECTIONS to place a book in say Mystery & Crime, there are 6 pages of Collection titles, 5 of them Mystery & Crime. So, it isn't just 'select a collection', but scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll and figure out which collection is actually ON THIS UNIT. I can't figure out how to fix this other than turning off syncing, which also turns off syncing whispersync books, which I use regularly. However, good idea to call the help line. Maybe they have a suggestion. |
I'm not sure I'm reading you right, but perhaps you should label the collections as "Mom's Mystery & Crime" , "Tarana's Mystery & Crime" etc. Then you download to your kindle only the collections that you care about. The rest stay in the cloud. But yes, the whole *concept* took me quite a while to learn, as it is very different from the K3 etc style of folders. Sigh.
Oh, and a star beside the collection tells you which one is actually ON your kindle. If that helps.
