Kindle for PC
Just a heads up. Got a notice that the Kindle for PC has an update. I didn't update my version. Don't know if it will do anything to the "Tools"

Users of certain tools who own Kindles do know that they don't have to rely entirely on the Kindle for PC approach anymore, right? Unless that's just the way you prefer to do things -- in which case I completely understand.
I'll test it... I ain't scurred. ![]() |

Did the dictionary feature on the PC ever work? Don't recall ever trying it until now with this new version and it doesn't work on my install (Windows 7) - I highlight a word and always get No Definition Found. I ran Check for Problems and it indicates that the dictionary has been loaded. I tried reloading, restarting the PC, etc, all to no avail.

I have the latest version and the dictionary seems to work ok. I am not a user of the dictionary that much so I have not done much of a test. The version seems to work very well on my Dell laptop.

I just downloaded version 1.4.1(31629) for Windows... downloaded "fresh" versions of several ebooks from my archive, and all is well with the most current "tools."
![]() Is that the newest version for Windows that people are seeing? EDIT: In fact, I completely removed the existing K4PC, installed the new and re-registered, downloaded fresh copies, and all is well. Last edited by DiapDealer; 03-16-2011 at 10:08 AM. |

I solved my dictionary problem. I renamed my Kindle Content folder, forcing a reload of everything from Amazon archives. The first time I tried the dictionary feature it downloaded and worked.
