Please try performing a hard restart using these instructions:
Perfect thank you now my next problem is I have a second kindle that I bought before the one we have just fixed it does not have my library on it how do I transfer the library
The easiest way to transfer books to your new Kindle is by using your Amazon account. Make sure that you register the device to the same Amazon account as your previous device. Then, open the “Content Library” on a browser, select your books, click on “Deliver”, and choose your new Kindle device.
I can guide you through these steps if needed!
OK Now sometimes when I am reading my kindle turns pages back and forward of its own volition is there a remedy for this
Could you please specify what exact model of Kindle you have?
Sorry have no idea its one that has buttons for turning page
Okay, I see. Thank you!
Usually, a hard reset resolves issues with pages turning, but if not you might check if your device is running on the latest software version and try updating it.
How do I do that
To check your software version: From the Home screen on your Kindle, press the Menu button, and then select Settings. You will see the current software version at the bottom of the screen.
I have gone to settings but don't see anything about software
The version number might be just a bunch of numbers with dots, for example, 5.16.1.2
Do you see anything like it?
no I see a list of things starting with your account then wireless etc
Okay, got it! Do you see the Device options menu there?
Yes
Great! Please, click on that and then select Device Info.
OK done
On the Devise info page, you should see the full name of your device and then the Firmware Version.
yes can see that it is 5.15.1
Could you please send me both the full name of the device and the firmware version number?
firmware version I have already sent name of device I think is probably Kindle Oasis (9th generation)
Great, thank you, *****!
So I checked and version number 5.15.1 is the latest one for your device model. It usually updates automatically if your device has a connection to Wi-Fi.
