Manage Your Kindle Changed - Page 8

Still no sign in the UK - or is just me? I'm really curious to see it since for me personally, it would be hard to have the page looking worse that it is currently.

No nothing for me yet either. I don't mind the current set up. It's easy to navigate, I can even do stuff on my iPhone.

Nothing for me either. I tried a different browser, cleared cache etc, but still the same. I'm itching to get in there and get rid of all the freebies but I'll guess we'll just have to be patient.

Aside form seeing it the once, I haven't been able to see it again.

Shanghai, I find that selecting what to do with a book on the MYK page as is takes a load of clicks and then the whole page has to refresh. Having to chose one option at a time for one book at a time, for me personally, is a pain.

I'm really looking forward (if it turns out to be poss) to being able to select batches of books to deal with. But it is great that at least they have allowed us to filter off the dictionaries and guides - those were truly irritating!

My MYK page just reverted to the old style listing by text descriptions. I presume the new style with covers was just a beta test now rejected.

The new way is still on mine BUT you can switch back & forth now by clicking on the symbol top of list on right.

What symbol Katie??

I'm still seeing new MYK with Firefox/Android. There's no 'switch' to go back to old MYK. What I see in upper right of the book list are icons to toggle between cover and list view, but that's always been there.

That is the same thing I am seeing.

For the firefox users who cannot see the new layout even after clearing cache. I couldn't get that to work, I ended up creating a new profile and I can see the new page that way.

I don't see any symbol there. MYK may have reset for me since I use Windows 8.1 and had to reset my browser yesterday.

The new MYK page may have gotten that appearance from a cookie loaded into the browser which disappeared after my browser reset. The reset eliminated all saved web pages and all my toolbars.

Its possible the new MYK page will re-appear again for me after Amazon detects the change.

I almost never use the MYK page, but was disappointed to see the same old/same old when I went to check it out. Oh well. Maybe I'll take a peek again next year.

eschwartz · 01-29-2014, 02:23 AM

I finally got back the new look -- I just needed to clear the cache, but I was lazy (apparently posting about my inability to get it while carefully following this thread is less work than spending 14 seconds clearing the cache

) but I was noticing as far as returning loaned books, it's nice it doesn't take as long to reload, but you still can't return multiple books at a time, which I would think would be the same as deleting multiple books.

And why do we have the option to delete checked-out loans anyway? This used to be hidden, and I accidentally used http://pepa.info/check-and-delete/ to remove loaned books from the old MYK once -- I couldn't return them, and had to wait a week and a half for it to expire naturally. Amazon CS didn't even know what was going on, but this WAS rather bizarre. Now you don't even need shady scripts??

I can't get it delete my expire loans at all. I wish I could it say it's deleted but when you refresh they are all still there.

Wow, you're right!

What is the deal with that?

(I am not brave enough to try deleting one that's still checked out, but considering some of the decisions here it'll be just my luck that THEN it would work.
