Question New to the Amazon Kindle fire HD
Just got my kindle fire and loving it so far and still learning but why can't I download apps from other sites? When I do a message box pops up saying:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"This app is trying to open a link with an external market that is not availiable on kindle fire. Would you like to open this link with the Amazon Appstore instead?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

And then it takes you back to the Amazon App Store... Help What can i do??

The best help I can give you is to request you check in the Kindle Fire forum instead.

Have you allowed installation of 3rd party apps?

More->Device->Allow Installation of Applications From Unknown Sources->On

Once you allow that, the next question is where are you trying to grab the apps from?
