Here’s What You Need to Do!"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
Like most portable devices, Kindles become more appealing when integrated seamlessly with other devices. That\u2019s why the “send-to-Kindle” feature was born: it enables Kindle users to receive documents and images from other devices. Unfortunately, the transfer doesn’t always go smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Send to Kindle may not work because of an issue with your send to Kindle email, incompatible file formats, or the number and size of your files. You can fix these issues by authorizing the sender address, converting your documents to a supported file type, and simply giving it time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In this article, we’ll explore the main reasons why send to Kindle can fail. Each potential cause will be followed by a proven solution. By the end of this article, you’ll be back to effortlessly moving your documents across your devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we begin, one thing to note is that the “Send-to-Kindle” email address is not your typical email address (the one used for registering your Kindle). It is specific for each Kindle device associated with your account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to learn more, make sure you check out my other article about Kindle email address<\/a><\/strong> before proceeding with this article. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To email a document to your Kindle device, the sender’s email address as one pre-approved in the Kindle user\u2019s Amazon account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, if you bought the Kindle yourself and registered it with your email address, that email address is automatically on the whitelist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n However, if the Kindle was a gift or a hand-me-down from someone else and they haven’t cleared their user data from the Kindle, you won’t be able to send documents to the Kindle without their intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, if you are receiving a book from your loved one or a friend, you’ll need to whitelist their email address as well before you can receive the book or the document on your Kindle device\/email account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Maybe your Kindle used to belong to someone else and the previous owner still wants to have the Kindle registered under their name, or perhaps you\u2019re getting a rich Kindle library as part of the package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In that case, you should ask them to add your email address to their Approved Personal Document Email List<\/strong>. This list can have up to 15 approved email addresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also take the steps mentioned below if you want to permit new email addresses to send documents to a Kindle registered under your email address. Amazon’s Help & Customer Service<\/a> page offers a helpful guide on how to do this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Amazon frequently revises Kindle’s procedures to safeguard its users. In that vein, when you prompt the send to Kindle feature, Amazon will send an email asking you to verify that the sender is a trusted device. The email will be addressed to the email address used to register the Kindle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before you press that “Verify Request” button, you won’t be able to facilitate any transfers. Additionally, you’ll need to give the go-ahead within 48 hours of receiving the email. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To avoid undergoing this precautionary step again, update<\/a> your send to Kindle email address. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Amazon wants to ensure that this sensitive email address is as difficult to trace back to you as possible. For this purpose, you might want to treat the prefix of your email address as a strong password. <\/p>\n\n\n\n1. Unauthorized Email Addresses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
