Glitch: Book goes to end of pile on your Kindle

· Filed Under Kindle, how to · Comment 

There seems to be some sort of glitch or bug on the Kindle reader that happens after doing a hard reset. Sometimes the Kindle will freeze, so you need to reset it. Problem is that most people like to have their ebooks sorted as newest first so when you change the book you are reading it appears at the top of the list, but after resetting the Kindle when you exit a book to read something else it goes right to the end of the pile, which means you have to go through several pages of books until you find it.

So, how do you fix this?

Easy:  probably your Kindle reader just forgot what time it is. . . .turn on whispernet and let it ask the world.

Hundreds of thousands of Kindle ebooks are available
