If you do not want your own highlighted passages to be counted in Popular Highlights,
you must turn off Annotations Backup in Settings. Keep in mind that if you turn off
Annotations Backup, your annotations and highlights will not be backed up by Amazon,
and they will not be displayed on other devices registered to your Amazon account.
Also, if you lose or damage your device, there will be no way to retrieve your
annotations and highlights.
Not all books contain Popular Highlights, and some books do not have enough
highlighted passages to have even a single Popular Highlight passage. When you are
reading such a book, if you press the Menu button you will notice that the "View
Popular Highlights" option will appear dimmed.
Updating Popular Highlights in a Book
Popular Highlights may not be available for the books you already own. If a book you
already own does not include them, you can check for Popular Highlights by following
these steps:
1. Press the Home button.
2. Press the Menu button.
3. Use the 5-way to underline "Sync & Check for Items" and press to select.
4. If there are Popular Highlights for the book, then you will see them the next time
you open the book. If you press the Menu button while reading the book and the
"View Popular Highlights" option is still dimmed, then no Popular Highlights are
available. Try checking again later.
Using Notes
You can add notes on what you are reading. Kindle stores all your notes for the current
content in your annotations. You can view them at any time by pressing the Menu
button and selecting "View My Notes & Marks." See "Viewing Your Annotations" for
more information.
