CHAPTER 9
Your Kindle and Amazon
In addition to shopping directly from your device, you can acquire the same books,
magazines, newspaper subscriptions, and other content you find on the Kindle Store
using a web browser on your computer. You can also go to the Manage Your Kindle
page on Amazon to manage your Kindle account, change or cancel a subscription, or
look up a past Kindle order. If you need help, Kindle Support on Amazon gives you
information, e-mail, and phone access to dedicated customer service representatives.
9.1 Shopping for Kindle Content on Amazon
This section shows you how to purchase content for your Kindle on Amazon. As with
purchases on the Kindle Store, Kindle content is auto-delivered wirelessly to your
Kindle.
Browsing the Kindle Store
When browsing the Kindle Store on Amazon, you use categories and sub-categories to
find content that suits your interests. Each page shows listings of content relevant to
the categories or sub categories you have navigated to and clicked on. Once inside a
category, you can further refine your browse by topic. Each page shows the path taken
so you can easily retrace your steps.
Searching the Kindle Store
When searching the Kindle Store on Amazon, you use the Amazon search engine to
find relevant Kindle content associated with the keyword or phrase that you type into
the search box. The search engine finds and displays lists of content along with
descriptive images, titles, authors and ratings. You can narrow results by categories by
clicking on the drop-down list located on the left side of the Search Results page.
