I found something that spoke about the kindle not indexing files. Battery draining because it is "stuck" for some reason. I discovered that I have 139 books not indexed!!! How odd. I haven't added large amounts of books since I first got the voyage 2 years ago. I have deleted the search index files in the system folder as instructed so will see if this solves the problem. Found this is an Amazon forum:
Try to put your device to sleep. Put it to sleep will speed up the indexing process. I have 19 books that takes less than 30 minutes to complete the indexing process simply by putting the device to sleep.
If it doesn't work try the following:
You need to FORCE Kindle to re-index your Kindle's books. This process involved deleting some files. Only the files related to indexing process need to be deleted. You don't need to delete or download the books all over again.
Please use the following instructions specific to your device:
1. Connect your Kindle to your computer.
2. Click Start, select Control Panel, and select "Folder Options" from the Control Panel menu.
3. Select the View tab.
4. In the View List, select the radio button to Show Hidden Files and Folders and uncheck Hide Protected Operating System Files if available.
5. Deselect the checkbox to Hide Protected Operating System Files. (You may want to re-enable this after re-indexing your Kindle.)
6. Open the Kindle internal memory on the PC.
7. Open the System folder on the Kindle disk.
8. Open the Search Indexes folder inside the System folder.
9. Select all files inside the Search Indexes folder and move them to the Recycle Bin.
10. Disconnect the Kindle from the computer.
11. Connect the Kindle to a power source.
The indexing process should be complete within 24 hours. Please leave the Kindle connected to a power source for this time frame.
