Just curious…I bought my 9 year old daughter a Kindle Fire for Christmas, and it put all of my library on her KF. I would like to take off some of my books. Is that possible?

Actually I’ve gone back to the Kindle. The iPad was great as a multi-purpose device, but it was too heavy. I’ve got a Kindle 3 now. It’s great.

Thanks for posting Mick! Might I ask why you use your iPad to read now rather than your Kindle?

My wife has bought a kindle for our 12 year old daughter. We’d like our daughter’s name to appear on the kindle, but to have purchases made to my wife’s account. How do we do that? Currently, the kindle says my wife’s name, which is not what we want.

Any ideas?

Bob, hard to tell what’s going on there. I’d try to un-register and then re-register the first kindle. Or do it to both at the same time (so you know you are doing the exact same thing on both).

Thanks Mick,
I’ve just registered the second kindle I bought for my wife liz and now when I look at buying a book the only option I get is to download to Liz’s Kindle; mine has disappeared.
Have i registered liz’s over the top of mine instead of registering a second kindle?
Thanks for any help.
Cheers
Bob

You can transfer the Kindle books, but not the iBooks books.

Probably a dumb question but….. I’ve got an iPad but find reading books very difficult; if I buy a Kindle can I copy books from my iBooks and Kindle libraries onto a Kindle as well? Thanks for any info, I don’t want to buy a Kindle and then find I have to repurchase all my books!!

We have two kindles that share the same account. Somehow my books are now on my husbands kindle and he says he doesn’t mind, but we don’t always read the same books. My question is, is there a way to take those books off of his kindle without deleting them from mine?

My husband and I are enjoying our Kindle. It’s good to know that we can share. Thanks for letting us know Mick.
