Troubleshooting Send to Kindle

tdonline · 10-27-2016, 10:34 AM

Is anyone using browser Send to Kindle and experiencing badly copied/sent articles? I've noticed the last few days that when I use Send to Kindle (both Chrome and Firefox) for NY Times articles, the results are truncated. Either the start or the end of the articles is missing. This morning I used one article as a test. From either Chrome and Firefox on my laptop, this NY Times opinion article is missing the first paragraph of the articles. To see if this was a NY Times issue, I then opened the article on my phone browser which has a third party send to kindle app. The third party app sent the full article to my Paperwhite. So it's not strictly a NY Times problem. It seems to be a Send to Kindle plus NY Times issue. I used Send to Kindle for a couple of Guardian articles and they arrived on my PW in full.

Anyone experiencing this truncating issue? Either with NY Times or just in general? I've uninstalled and reinstalled Send to Kindle and the problem persists.

Having read some reviews of 3rd party apps, it looks my problem is pretty common to StK. I installed Push to Kindle and will see if that works better. You'd think Amazon would offer an official app that works better the 3rd party apps, but I guess not.

I use Send to Kindle a lot, but I send ebooks, mobi files. I've not experienced any fragmentation issues at all. Or any issues of any kind.
