I uninstalled Kindle for PC and downloaded and reinstalled it and it still will not start.

I can download the software, but I still can't open it. I'm wondering if the problem lies in the C:\Users\My_Username\Application Data\Local directory. There are a couple of Kindle folders in that directory which may need deleting. I may try this. If it fails, I'll call Amazon Kindle Support. I'll keep the list posted.Craig On 7/22/2012 10:07 PM, Felinitye wrote:I'll check on that.

Shoshana and Sherry, I'll probably call Amazon Kindle Support in a few minutes and let them know that three users are having problems with the software. Shoshana, you mentioned the possibility of your software having been deregistered. If you go to your Amazon account online and then to to "Manage Your Kindle" and then to "Manage Your Devices," is your Kindle for PC showing up as registered? Mine is still registered.

And I neveruninstalled the non accessible version and that one doesn't open either.Sherry -----Original Message----- From: vi-kindle-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:vi-kindle-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Craig Werner Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2012 7:48 PM To: vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vi-kindle] Re: KFPC issues; anyone else? Shoshana, I wonder if Kindle for PC users who don't use the accessibility plugin have had difficulty.When you uninstalled the software, did you delete the Kindle folder from your C:\Users\Your_Username_Application Data folder? I may do this soon.Craig On 7/22/2012 9:34 PM, Felinitye wrote:Well, I spent nearly 3 hours with them today, and we tried just about everything, and, it would seem, that Amazon may have de-registered my KFPC...but since it won't download at all, I can't register it. Maybe you'llhave better luck than I did ...at least, I'm not the only one experiencingthis. Oh, and don't bother with the link they provide ...it doesn't seemtowork. Shoshana, and no, my headache has not subsided, at least not much. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Craig Werner" <craig_werner@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2012 9:28 PM Subject: [vi-kindle] Re: KFPC issues; anyone else? Shoshana, same problem here. I tried opening Kindle for PC with Accessibility Plugin via the Desktop shortcut and via clicking on itfrom the Amazon folder after pressing the "All Programs" button. It is as if the software simply was not there. Nothing happens when I try toopen it. A Google search has turned up nothing. I'm off to do somemore checking. I may try de-registering and re-registering. I'll phoneAmazon Tech Support if I can't figure out a solution. I'll keep the list posted. I hope your headache has subsided.

Spent over 2 hours with Kindle tech support, no joy. then I learnedthat the old version of the KFPC expired, and people have to get the new version. Could it be that the accessibility plug in is attached to anold version, or something? Anyone else having issues? Shoshana, exhausted and with a splitting headache, but no KFPC, sigh
