Help: Kindle - I just can't get through the on-screen instructions .....

[Anonymous]

..... & can't seem to give the damm thing away 

It was a buy from me to me for my 60th in January BUT my old & impaired brain won't process the on-screen instructions = no paper instructions as back-up & oh boy are the instructions of the verbal diahorrea type

I am vexed as it was a logical thing for me to do & was offerred help from an author friend of mine = Nhys Glover (Google her) but she got busy which is a good thing for her

I am not one to bleat but I'm really stuck and so much is Kindle only on Amazon now - I'm into werewolf romance atm

It is hard for me to do IT stuff as it must be for you, dear reader, to understand my struggling with 21st century IT stuff 

Before my son 29 flew the nest he would have patiently explained it all to me BUT he is busy & I don't want to pester him & make a nuisance of myself = I just make a nuisance of myself here on O2 Community Forum 

Any help would be much appreciated as always

Aldaweb & Cleoriff thank you for what you both say, its encouraging & I'm very like you Cleoriff in the way I learn, but no printer as I kicked it some time ago & it does not function  it was very briefly therapeutic for me at the time but not so good for the printer & it so long-winded going up to the town library & printing out there ..... need to get myself another basic printer preferably one with surrounding rubber bumpers 

Can I get back to you Aldaweb after the weekend please? ..... I am very grateful for your offer of help & well done you for advising your boss

Yes of course that's ok, just enjoy the weekend and think of me having to work

Well, Aldaweb I hope wherever you are in the country when at work on a bank holiday = not much fair is it?  ..... ..... ..... that it is raining on your office building = why? 'cos then you won't feel so bad about having to go out to work on a bank holiday

May I add you to my 'friends' please?

Take care, Jane

Unfortunately I'm in London where the weather looks like it will be good, but I'm not tied to the office but on call, so I can sit in the park reading between jobs when the weather is good - on the Kindle of course though as a lot of the time I'd be driving audio books and podcasts are my companions.
Of course you may add me to your friends list.

Thank you Aldaweb

Enjoying the sunshine whilst sitting in a park reading sounds like kinda good to me

Hi Jane 

Just drop me a PM when you want to get stuck into sorting the kindle out. 

I hope all goes well with the doc, sorry Mr as the consultants like to be called. It certainly seems to take time to get appointments these days doesn't it.

I'm on lates next week (like this one) so if it's after about 3:30pm I maybe mobile but the alerts com through to my Z10 so I'll reply as soon as I'm able.

GM @aldaweb 

its about 2 months since we mentioned the kindle thing

you said to me to pm you when I was ready to get stuck into getting to grips with it

just wanted to say in my op thread ..... for various reasons the kindle thing will have to be put on the 'back burner'

& I didn't want you thinking I was ungrateful for your 'out of the blue' offer of help

thank you  & enjoy your day 

I will contact via pm as you suggested if that's still ok with you 

[aldaweb]

Hi Jane

It was an open offer so whenever you're up to it 

I may be off the grid for a few days depending on O2's rollout plans but will get back to you when I reach civilisation again
