Verifiedsimitpatel :
Hello. Let me know when you are ready.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
I am ready>
simitpatel :
If you want to see the same books as her, then you would need to register your Kindle under her same account.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
My friend belongs to a book club and says she can order books for me through her account. i started to register it under my name, can it be reset?
simitpatel :
Otherwise, she can 'lend' her books to you for 14 days. However, only certain books are eligible for lending.
simitpatel :
And if you want to register your Kindle under her name, you can still do that. You just need to unregister the Kindle, and then register it again under her account.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
Can I reset it to her account?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
How do I unregister?
simitpatel :
Just press the "Home" key. Then press "Menu", and go to "Settings". Then go to "Deregister".
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
thank you
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
I also need help registering the wifi account. it will not take the password XXXXX have on record.
simitpatel :
Are you trying to connect to your home network?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
yes
simitpatel :
When you try to connect, do you see your network name on the list on the Kindle?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
yes
simitpatel :
What is the name of the network?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
BOR83
simitpatel :
What happens when you try to put in the password?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
It rejects it
simitpatel :
What is the model number of your router?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
Where do I find that?
simitpatel :
On the wireless router. Most likely on the bottom.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
There are many numbers on the router which is a VErizon Fios router.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
Mi 424-
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
WR
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
sorry-
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
Mi 424-wr
simitpatel :
And have you confirmed that exact password XXXXX on your computer?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
No, but the internet is working so I doesn't that mean that I can connect? I am not sure how to check the wifi connection. I also get internet on the laptop.
simitpatel :
Is the laptop connected using the wireless connection?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
Yes!
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
However, I am not on the laptop now.
simitpatel :
And does the password XXXXX any capitals or symbols in it?
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
Yes
simitpatel :
Did you put them into the Kindle correctly?
simitpatel :
I'm sorry. I have to step away for about 10 minutes. I'll be right back.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
I think so
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
It will not connect to the wifi...I have tried the password XXXXX but clearly it must be another password. Is there any way to change the password?
simitpatel :
You would need to log into the router itself. But I'm not familiar with that router at all, so unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to help you much with that.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
What can I do?
simitpatel :
You can open a new question in our Networking section, and I'm sure someone there would be able to help you find that password, or reset that router.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
Does that require additional payment?
simitpatel :
Yes, opening another question would be another charge.
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
That is not satisfactory>
JACUSTOMER-0bp2iu3a- :
You would not be happy if you spent $30 and still could not connect.
simitpatel :
I'm sorry. I had no idea that you wanted to do more than just setup your account. I'll just opt and and see if someone else can help you.
