Last Updated: March 4, 2021

If you've bought your device from a non-Amazon seller and now you want to know how to get those books you bought onto your device? Well, after you register, this can be done. But if you're wondering how you register, you've come to the right place. This article can explain these details to you.

Steps

1
Press the Menu button. This will bring up a drop-down box in the upper corner of the device.
2
Use the 5-way controller to select "Settings".

3
Use the select button at the center of the 5 way controller to select the listing labeled "Registration". You'll see a button that your cursor should automatically be resting over, called "register".
4
Press the Select button once more, then you get to a page asking you whether or not you have an Amazon Account already. You'll be on a link labelled "If you already have an Amazon account".
5
Type your email address used in your Amazon account into the "email" box. Press the down arrow key once in the center of the 5-way controller to skip down to the password box.
6
Type your password. If a letter repeats itself consecutively, give it an extra second in between character presses, as the device has a problem.
7
Press the down arrow one last time. It will then highlight the "Submit" button.
8
Press the "Select" button in the center of the 5-way controller to confirm your selection. Give it a few extra seconds. It takes a little bit longer to process the registration to your account for your device.
9
Know if everything was successful. If the register button is now labelled "deregister" along with your correct name that is listed to your Amazon account, you'll know that you've successfully registered the device.

Question

I've done what you said over and over, but the page comes up saying my kindle "is unable to connect at this time. Please make sure you are within wireless range and try again." My other stuff works fine. What do I do?

Try using a different WiFi network, maybe use a hotspot or WiFi brick. That usually works for me.
