I've been unable to post my highlights to facebook lately from my kindle keyboard and kindle basic. I've already linked and authorized devices however nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?

What error message are you getting?

Ricky D'Angelo · 11-19-2015, 07:58 PM

There is no error message. . . just a "message is getting shared" however nothing gets posted to facebook.

I tried this feature for the first time today. I get an error that says: "There was a problem sending your message. Please try again later."

Did this feature work on side loaded books or just ones purchased from Amazon?

Just those that were purchased from Amazon. All side-loaded books won't work for social media sharing, reviews etc.

Make sure you didn't turn Facebook off. Check the settings there.

Is your default on Facebook to post to 'friends only'? I don't believe the status can be posted to Facebook if it is?

I don't think it is. . . my kindle had posted to facebook previously but stopped working a couple of weeks ago.

Deleting the amazon app on facebook and then reauthorizing it finally got this function to work.

Good to hear that you got it working.
