Why can I not register this new Kindle? it keeps telling me I do not have an amazon account

solution1:
If you think you're entering the correct Amazon email address and password you should contact Kindle Support. Tap the word Help at the top of this screen and then follow the path for Contact Us. Choose "Call Me" under "Phone" and they will call you promptly ready to assist you. You can also use Live Chat but I find Phone to be the best option. Do not use email as the answers are often incorrect or you end up calling anyway after wasting precious time.


solution2:
- you need to have a wireless connection to Register - either WiFi or 3G/4G
- you need to have a Kindle that was not reported as stolen or lost or blacklisted - will NOT be allowed to Register
- you need to have an Amazon Account ID email and password

If you are registering a new device. You have to give it your log in info for amazon account meaning user name and password you use when logging into amazon.com

You should have an email address associated with your Amazon Kindle account. Go to Amazon dot com and attempt to log on to your Kindle account. When you put in a wrong password it will reject it but there should be an option that says something like *forgot password?* You might have to enter a wrong password a couple of times before this option becomes available. Click on it and it should take you to a page where you can reset the password which means they will email you a new temporary one or something like answering your special questions right that you can use one time to log onto your account. Once on, you can create a new password and do your bank details changes.

You would need to deregister the device from the new email address/account and register it to your old address/account, the one that has the rest of your books.

Once registered to your previous account you will be able to take advantage of the Kindle Owner's Lending Library feature.

Once you've registered your Kindle to your own Amazon account you may still be able to access any books on your previous account if you can take advantage of the Family Library option. Information here:

Hi,

I assume you mean kindle books you order online (not from the kindle itself?)

They are delivered to your Kindle based on what you have registered on line, not to your email. Therefore changing your email address should not matter (at least directly).

When you say 'moved' - do you mean moved house physically (which does not matter at all) or moved to using a new kindle? Assuming you mean a new kindle, you need to
A) make sure the kindle is registered to your Amazon account: go to home screen, touch top of screen to bring up menu and then press the 'three lines button', select settings. There should be option to register (you will need email address and password - so you need to make sure your online Amazon account has correct email address registered! This is where email change might be causing problems, but can be updated online)

B) when you order books online you need to select the correct kindle to deliver to in the drop down box next to the order button (it might be called something like "Paul's Second kindle")

You can access all books you have ever bought (for this kindle or any other) on Kindle paper white by selecting 'cloud' when on the list of books at home screen.

Hope that helps, if not please reply and explain in more detail what you are doing and what happens / does not happen

You can re-register your Kindle through the device itself. Go to the "Settings" menu, select "Register," and then enter your Amazon account email address and password to connect your device to your account. If you do not have an Amazon account, you are prompted to create one.

To register or deregister your Kindle from your device:

1. Move the 5-way controller down until "Settings" is underlined and press to select.
2. Press the 5-way controller to select "register" or "deregister" from the Settings screen. If you don't have an Amazon.com account, you will be prompted to create one.
3. When you register your Kindle, enter your Amazon.com user name and password (the e-mail address and password associated with your Amazon account) using the keyboard.
