To register your Kindle, make sure it is connected to the internet and is running the latest software version.\u00a0 Make sure you’ve entered the right email and password and a time and date matching your time zone.

With a bit of patience, you should be able to get your Kindle registered in no time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I have covered the detailed process of how to register a Kindle in another article<\/a><\/strong>. In it, I provide you a step-by-step guide of what you need to do. If you haven’t gone through the process, make sure you check out that article first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In case you are still unable to register your Kindle, then this article will help you troubleshoot the problems! So, let’s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re having trouble registering your Kindle, the first step is to ensure that your Wi-Fi is working and that your Kindle is connected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Without connecting to the internet, you cannot register your Kindle device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your Kindle is not connecting to your Wi-Fi network, there are a few possible causes you should look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re still having trouble, try restarting your Kindle and router.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The next thing you should do is check whether you’re using the correct Amazon account. If you’re not, you won’t be able to register your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The most likely cause for your trouble might be that you’re trying to register your Kindle with an email address already associated with another Amazon account. If that’s the case, you’ll need to use a different email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another possibility is that you’re entering your Amazon account information incorrectly. Double-check that you’re using the correct email address and password for your Amazon Kindle account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To make sure you’re feeding the right Amazon account details, you’ll have to go to the Amazon website first and sign in with the email ID and password you just entered into your Kindle device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re unable to sign in, it means you’ve also entered the wrong email and password in your Kindle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This usually happens to people who own more than one Amazon account. You may have mixed up your email IDs and Passwords. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Don’t worry\u2014it happens to me all the time. I have started using a secure password manager who will remember them for me whenever I need them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you face no trouble signing into your account from the website, you’ll need to jump to the next step. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re having trouble registering your Kindle, there’s a possibility it hasn’t been connected to Amazon yet. This usually happens when the device doesn\u2019t have enough charge or has outdated firmware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have not bought the device from a legitimate place, there\u2019s a high chance you’ve been sold a lost or stolen Kindle. In such cases, the device may still be registered with the previous owner’s account or Amazon might have blacklisted the model number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n First, make sure the device is charged enough to complete the registration process. If you don’t have its charger around, here’s a guide to finding a suitable charger for your Kindle<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Second, verify that the Kindle software is up to date. To know whether the device is running on the latest software version, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have a very old Kindle, you must install the latest software update in order to register it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember to check the internet connectivity first and then update the software. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the update is complete, restart your Kindle and try registering once again. Hopefully, you won’t face any further issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you come across a lost or stolen model which has been deactivated either by the previous owner or Amazon itself, you need to contact them to register it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the Kindle is registered with its previous owner’s Amazon account, you’ll simply have to deregister and re-register<\/a> it with your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, if Amazon has already blacklisted the serial number of your Kindle, there’s nothing much that can be done to register it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the device time and date don’t match with the time zone you live in, you may not be able to register your Kindle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n First, check if your device is set to the correct time zone. If it is not, you can change the time zone in the device settings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To do this, go to the Home screen on your Kindle and select Menu > Settings. Then, under “Device Info,” select “Device Time.” From there, you can set the correct time and date for your location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally, restart your device and recheck the time if you\u2019re still having trouble. <\/p>\n\n\n\n1.
