Page numbers missing on newest Voyage firmware? [SOLVED]
My newly-revived Kindle Voyage (detailed in another thread) doesn't seem to have page numbers on this new firmware, although I seem to remember that the current book I was reading did have page numbers in the previous firmware version.
Is this something missing in the current firmware? |

Did you press middle bottom? Tap 3 times on the bottom.
Is it the same book? Not all kindle books have page numbers. |

Click your heels together three times and say 'There's no place like home' and you'll be there.

I then went to the 'Aa' where one enlarges the font size and checked out the options there. The 'Page' option is dimmed. I did, indeed, click my heels three times but it sent me to the Plateau of Leng, wherein live toad-like creatures with unusually large mouths. I quickly clicked my heels again.

If you send books to your Kindle with Calibre, Calibre will generate ("fake") page numbers for you. |

I checked the other 5 books, and they too have no page numbers. However, I'll add some more books from calibre's Virtual Library that I created just prior to wiping my Kindle and starting over, and then see what happens. |

I do have to say that I notice that it takes awhile for page numbers and book covers to load. Also sometimes I just have to delete and re-download them. Sometimes it just doesn't work right the first time. |

Sideloaded books will only have page numbers if sent by Calibre. It generates the ".apnx" file which contains the page numbers.

Problem solved:
USER STUPIDITY! What can I say? Everything works fine. I'm now enrolled in a new class: Stupidity 101. Anyone care to join me? |

I don't need the class. I wrote the book.
