Help please: lost all sideloaded books!
I did what I thought was a simple operation on my wife's Kindle 4 NT: I turned on WiFi and re-registered it to our joint Amazon account.

When I accessed it again, we then found all her sideloaded (i.e. non-Amazon) books had gone, leaving a virtually empty home page.

So I took off all these 100 or so books (still in the Kindle's documents folder), and then sideloaded them back on again. Still nothing! I cannot load any of our previous (non-Amazon) books onto the device, as I can with any other.

Help please! Thanks....

Did you saved the files on your pc or somewhere like dropbox?

Reboot the Kindle. That tends to fix funnies like this.

Thanks guys, appreciated the help. As suggested, a complete reboot finally fixed the problem, and all the sideloaded books appeared again in the Home screen. Whew!!!
