you have to connect your Kindle to the computer and back it up to it. Are you having problems with your Kindle? The users guide states this only should be done as a last resort.

From the Kindle users guide: factory reset of your Kindle. Prior to doing so, back up any personal documents, periodical issues older than the past seven issues that you’d like to keep, MP3, and Audible files. To do a factory reset: 1. Press the Home button. 2. Press the Menu button. 3. Select “Settings.” 4. Press the Menu button. 5. Select “Reset to Factory Defaults.” 6. After your Kindle restarts, go to Archived Items in Home and re-download the items you’d like to read. Transfer back the personal documents and other files you had previously backed up. -----Original Message----- From: Jessica Brown Sent: Sunday, November 11, 2012 6:59 AM To: vi-kindle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vi-kindle] Re: Page Preferences Problem How do you do a factory reset?

If you are actually in a book, then you do have an issue, and may have to call Kindle CS ..but page prefs work *only* in an actual book. They don't even work in the after material where you can rate the book and get suggestions. I'm not sure about the introductory material, like tables of contents. Also, is your TTS on? (oops, that's in page prefs, never mind!) OK, can you turn a page, forward or back with the buttons on the side of the Kindle, and if so, does the voice guide tell you which page you are on? Sounds to me like you might not be in the actual book ...but in the end material. If so, go back to the beginning of the book using the go to menu, and see if that works.
