7 solutions when kindle books won’t download

The above methods are easy to use, but in fact there are many people who have encountered the problem that they cannot download a kindle book that they have previously purchased.

so here are 8 solutions when kindle books won’t download.

Solution 1: Shut down and restart your device.

this is the easiest and solves most problems.

Solution 2: Confirm Wi-Fi connection.

disconnect and reconnect wifi, confirm it works.

solution 3: sync kindle again.

Just by syncing kindle, new kindle books can be displayed correctly on our device.

solution 4: cancel registration and register again.

If the book or app gets stuck while downloading, unregister it first (settings -> registration -> unregister).

this will remove all your books from the cloud.

once registered again, try to re-download it from the cloud section.

optional: We can also unsubscribe the device by managing “your content and devices”.

Solution 5: Amazon license limit error fix.

When trying to download a Kindle title on a new device, you may encounter an error with Amazon: License Limit Reached.

With most kindle books, we can only download six copies across multiple devices and apps. if you try to download a book to a seventh device, you will receive a license limit exceeded warning. in this situation, you should deregister any old devices that you no longer use (old phones, old copies of the desktop app, etc.).

just log in to your amazon account -> your content and devices -> devices -> device actions -> unsubscribe.

Once this is done, restart the app or your kindle device and it should open without issue.

Solution 6: Please confirm whether the payment method is valid or not.

Please check your digital orders first. Make sure the book you were trying to download has been completed by going to amazon.

Also, it would be better to check your payment settings as well. i mean, if the default 1-click checkout is invalid, amazon will not approve the order.

Solution 7: If you deleted a book by mistake, buy it again

We all know that we can delete kindle books from the cloud, but we must also recognize that if we delete content using this method, we will not be able to recover it unless we buy it again.

Solution 8: Failed to enable kindle cloud reader offline?

As I said earlier, amazon stopped the download option on kindle cloud reader since August 2020. In other words, it is impossible to download books via kindle cloud reader. please try the above methods.
