Question

Why is my deleted book still showing on my Kindle?

Community Answer

Deleting the book from Amazon's page doesn't delete it from your Kindle. Instead, on the Kindle itself, go to the Home page where you get the list of books on your Kindle. Using the little square box to the right of the A-Z keys, move down the list until you're on the book you wish to delete. Then use the right hand surrounding bit of the square (which should have a tiny right hand arrow on it), and press that little arrow. You will get a picture of the book and a list of options. At the bottom, click on 'Remove from device,' and it will delete it.

Question

Should I delete books from my device after I have read them?

Community Answer

If you don't think you will read them again, then yes, you should. This is a good way to keep plenty of space open on your Kindle for new books.

Question

How do I remove multiple books from a device?

Community Answer

It depends on which Kindle you're using. On the first generation Kindle, push on the five arrow key to the right and it will bring you to a menu where you can click Delete Now. On the other Kindles, you just touch and hold on the picture on the screen and a little menu will pop up and you click Delete.
