Used Kindle Fire

Hi,

I bought my son's Kindle Fire, so that my wife could play some games. It has lots of games, but they don't play because I am not the 'content owner'.

I hesitate to get new games because I don't know how the bleeping thing will deal with duplicates -- I fear a mess. I also don't know how to just delete the ones that are on there now.

Anybody? Also, how do you get the keyboard back. When I was registering my account, it would frequently disappear. I would try one thing or another, and get it back -- but sometimes I had to start the registration over again.

Help GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,

hj

I'd have to look through the owner's guide to recall exactly how we did this hj, but when we gave my son's Kindle to my sister-in-law, we had to do a master reset. I think you can actually pull up the manual on Google and it will tell you how.

And here I thought, when I first saw the title of the thread, that this was going to be a misplaced classified advertisement!

You have to take it back to "out of the box" like John said. My samsung tab2 was the same way, it got so buggy, it would crash every time it went to sleep
