Oasis 2 -- anyone having problems downloading from the store?
I finally got all my books/collections set up, but am having problems downloading directly from the Kindle Store. Samples aren't downloading at all. Anyone experiencing similar issues?

Yes, I had to reset. Back to the re-sorting collections.
God this makes me never want to upgrade ever again. |

Can I please ask you to give me a little more info on the problem you had? My device is unable to access the cloud files, so wondering if we had a similar problem. Amazon support have asked me not to factory reset, but I'm wondering if I should try anyway

I went to the store on the device, clicked "download sample," nothing happened. I bought a free book, nothing happened.
From Amazon.com/myk, I tried sending existing library items and also new samples and free books. They didn't show up on the advice. Yes, my wifi was on. |

Was able to download a small batch fine when I received it, but today was unable to download the rest of my books. The same thing was happening as you explained. I did a reset and that seemed to fix it, but now I'm not getting covers.....argh!
Update: A second reset seems to have fixed the missing cover issue. Tedious, but everything seems normal now.....weird. Last edited by Mr. Goodbar; 11-03-2017 at 09:09 PM. |

Yeah, my oasis finally burped up the books it had queued. And I think i've finally come up with a less painful way to add sideloaded books to collections on a new device.

Samples have been downloading slowly for me lately on my trusty Voyage. I wonder if it is a problem with the Store. Usually you can watch it download. Now I have to close my kindle, walk away for a while and when I come back it's there.

That's because I said it before someone mentioned that.
