Kindle 2 (GSM) and Feedbooks Download Guide

honeybunny · 12-09-2009, 01:03 PM

I just got my new Kindle 2 GSM, and I'm trying to download the Kindle Download Guide from Feedbooks. Apparently it is downloaded but doesn't show up on my front page. When I try to download it again, I get a message that it already exists. Any ideas? There doesn't appear to be a Content Manager on the Kindle 2. Is it possible that I just need to wait for it to show up? If it never shows up, how do I delete it to download it again? Do I have to connect it to my PC?

Well, I fixed it by connecting the Kindle to my PC, deleting the file that had been downloaded to the Kindle, downloading the file to my PC, and copying it to the Kindle. I have no idea, but my assumption is that it was a partial download.

Maybe your Kindle was not set to show both personal documents and books. Check your "Show and Sort" option at the top of the Home page.

Your idea regarding a partial download sounds right to me. Sometimes this happens and, in order to show up so that I can delete it, I have to restart my kindle.
