Deleting a Collection

You can delete collections if you're no longer using them or you want to reorganize

them. Deleting a collection will never delete the items in the collection. Any item that

is in a deleted collection will stay on your Kindle. If the item is not associated with

another collection, it will reappear in the Home screen.

To delete a collection, follow these steps:

1.

If you are not already on the Home screen, press the Home button.

2.

Use the 5-way to navigate to the collection.

3.

Move the 5-way to the right to view the collection's detail page.

4.

Use the 5-way to select "Delete Collection".

5.

You will see a confirmation box asking you whether you want to delete the

collection or not.

6.

Use the 5-way to select either "ok" or "cancel".

Adding Collections from Another Kindle

If you have more than one Kindle registered to your Amazon account, you can add the

collections from another Kindle and merge them with collections on your current

Kindle. This is useful if you've set up an organization system on another Kindle and you

want use it on your current Kindle. The new collections will appear in Home on your

current Kindle. Kindle books from the other device can be manually downloaded from

Archived Items and they will appear in Home.

For example, suppose you have two devices named Tom's Kindle and Judy's Kindle. If

Tom's Kindle already includes some collections, you can copy those collections and

merge them with the collections on Judy's Kindle. After you copy the collections from

Tom's Kindle to Judy's Kindle, then both devices will have the same collections.
