CHAPTER 9

Your Kindle and Amazon

In addition to shopping directly from your device, you can acquire the same books,

magazines, newspaper subscriptions, and other content you find on the Kindle Store

using a web browser on your computer. You can also go to the Manage Your Kindle

page on Amazon to manage your Kindle account, change or cancel a subscription, or

look up a past Kindle order. If you need help, Kindle Support on Amazon gives you

information, e-mail, and phone access to dedicated customer service representatives.

9.1 Shopping for Kindle Content on Amazon

This section shows you how to purchase content for your Kindle on Amazon. As with

purchases on the Kindle Store, Kindle content is auto-delivered wirelessly to your

Kindle.

Browsing the Kindle Store

When browsing the Kindle Store on Amazon, you use categories and sub-categories to

find content that suits your interests. Each page shows listings of content relevant to

the categories or sub categories you have navigated to and clicked on. Once inside a

category, you can further refine your browse by topic. Each page shows the path taken

so you can easily retrace your steps.

Searching the Kindle Store

When searching the Kindle Store on Amazon, you use the Amazon search engine to

find relevant Kindle content associated with the keyword or phrase that you type into

the search box. The search engine finds and displays lists of content along with

descriptive images, titles, authors and ratings. You can narrow results by categories by

clicking on the drop-down list located on the left side of the Search Results page.
