HD Problem deleting book samples

crich70 · 06-08-2015, 11:58 PM

I'm having a frustrating time with something. Sometimes I download a sample of a book to my KFHD6" and then decide to buy the book. So I download it and then try to delete the sample and my KF gives me a good half hour of grief at least while I try to get the book sample to delete. Has anyone else had this problem? And if so how did you solve it?

Are you using the link at the end of the sample to make your purchase?

I usually do. The latest sample did finally delete, and my fire updated so maybe it will work better now, but I have to wonder if that really was the problem.

Best to Delete Samples From Your Account on Manage My Content than on the Fires ALL they do is remove from Device.

Well they are deleting easier now. Maybe it was a software problem. They do have a samples folder in Manage your account I think. Sometime I have to go online and delete those samples that I've bought the book for.
