Kindles
Ola,
Do any of you folk use Kindles out here (DXB)? I have a Kindle Fire HD which my dear old Ma got me for my last birthday. She had registered it in her name so she could load some books on to it. I ended up un-registering it and then registering it in my name to stop her getting a credit card notification every time I downloaded some smut or whatever. The problem is now every time I try and download anything to it, it tells me to piss around with the country settings. I have tried it with the registration being here and also in the UK but it's still playing silly beggers. I think my Amazon account is a .com account and not .co.uk and also I only have a UAE credit card registered on it. Does anyone know if this is the problem? I.e. If I registered it on .co.uk and also used a UK card do you think this will help? It's starting to really grind my gears! finally, does anyone have any 'must have' apps that I need to download? |
Re: Kindles
I use the Kindle app on the ipad - I'm pretty sure to download from amazon.co.uk you need a UK credit card (which I do and use for Amazon).

Re: Kindles
Thought it maybe something like that.
Will have a crack tonight and register with .co.uk with a UK card and then re-register my Kindle. Paininthearse.com |

I had issues with mine. Setup your Amazon account at amazon.co.uk with UK address, then use UAE credit card. Mine works fine like that.

Re: Kindles
No issues what so ever. I've had a US one and a UK one (currently US) both on a UAE card with no issues.
Only problem is I downloaded that shitty book weasel put together. |
