Dear Kindle Pals,
I use my kindle with little problems so far.
However, I decided to use kindle for PC when on my computer. My new laptop
has the kindle app already installed on windows 10.
I use Jaws 18 but have had some issues with the settings.
I don't know how to read the books which I already purchased in my books
section.
Of course, I already set up the app with my username and password.
Please provide me with any tips/recommendations/advice on its use, in
addition to some short cuts that can make my life easier.
Cheers,
Joe
