Can't download kindle book to ipad 2

I downloaded the most recent kindle app from iTunes (2.85, I think).  I followed the instructions: tap on Archives and choose book to download.  However, when I did this, I got an error message indicating that I need an update to kindle app and am referred to the iTunes store!  Has anyone else had this issue and if so, what do I do?  Thanks!

Dave,
Thanks for the URL.  I ended up exchanging a few email messages with Amazon people.  That didn't help so I was connected by phone to an Amazon support person in the US.  It's unfortunate, but the very first Kindle book I tried to download was a gift, and the gift giver didn't realize that he had chosen a Kindle book that can only be read using the Kindle apps for PC or Mac.  Unfortunately, my Mac operating system is too old (and who wants to read a book on a computer anyway?!).  So apparently there's nothing wrong with my iPad 2 or the Kindle app--I hope, anyway!  In any case, I've learned to be careful about ordering Kindle books!
Thanks again,
Xilan

    Get the Kindle app from the App Store, sign in to your Kindle account, and all your books will be there. Not sure if you actually have to download them first, but there you go.

  • I have downloaded Kindle books to my ipad before but now it says it is not supported.  Has something changed?

    Can someone explain to me what has happened.  I was able to download Kindle books to my iPad using Kidle app, now I  can't.  What has changed?

    You could try deleting the app and downloading it again.
    In any case, this forum is only for the iBooks app.  For the Kindle app you need to ask in their own forums.

    Can I buy kindle books dirctly from my ipad mini?

    Although you can't shop for Kindle content directly from the Kindle reading app, you can shop from the Kindle Store using the Safari browser and deliver Kindle titles to the Kindle reading app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch.

  • Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    If you got them from iBooks, then no. As far as I know, iBooks are linked to the Apple ID that downloaded them. If you got them via Kindle or the such, the apps may have a sharing function.
    If it's another app, then whatever  the rules of that app says is what works.
    If you're looking for e-books on a budget, check out your local library. Many have e-books you can check out for a period of time, and they either work with an app or are PDF files with some sort of time limit encoding in them

  • I cannot download Kindle books from iCloud?

    Can anyone suggest why I cannot download Kindle books from the Cloud to my iPhone?

    Kindle books are not on iCloud. Do you actually mean iCloud? See the title of your post. Kindle books are downloaded from Amazon's servers using the Kindle App on the iPad/iPhone.
    For the Kindle App see: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/kindle-read-books-ebooks-magazines/id302584613?m t=8

  • Can you share kindle books using family sharing?

    Can you share kindle books using family sharing?

    Hi Charlie42,
    Happy New Year!  The link below explains how you can tell which purchased content is available to share using Family Sharing.   Contact Amazon for more specifics regarding sharing their content.  The Kindle app itself may be shareable, but the books may be considered an In-App purchase, making them not shareable.  Amazon would be able to give you a definitive answer.

    Which purchased content can I share using Family Sharing
    After you set up Family Sharing, the eligible songs, albums, movies, TV shows, books, and apps purchased by family members will be available to everyone else in the group. Learn what you can share with your family members.
    If you turned on Share My Purchases, you can share most content that's also available in iTunes in the Cloud. You can share Music, Movies, and TV shows from the iTunes Store. You can also share Books that you downloaded from the iBooks Store, and apps from the App Store. The availability of each content type depends on your country.
    There are a few things that you can't share:
    Songs added to iTunes Match from outside the iTunes Store
    In-App Purchases
    Items that are no longer available on the iTunes Store
    Items that were hidden
    Apps that aren't shareable
    If you're on an Apple TV, you can't access shared music.See if you can share an app
    Use these steps to see if you can share an app before or after you get it.
    App Store in iOS 8
    Go to the app's description page. Scroll down to the Information section. If you can share it, you'll see Yes next to Family Sharing.
    Go to Updates > Purchased > My Purchases. If you can't share an app, you'll see Not Shareable next to its name.
    Mac App Store in OS X Yosemite
    Go to the app's description page and check the Information section. If you can share it, you'll see Yes next to Family Sharing.
    Go to Purchases. If you can't share an app, you'll see Not Shareable next to its name.
    Learn more
    If one of your family members received their content through Apple ID for Students, you won’t see it in their shared purchases. This includes apps and other content distributed through the school.
    Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing. Content can be hidden by family members; hidden content is not available for download. Content downloaded from family members or acquired via redemption codes is not subject to Ask to Buy.

  • I installed ios6 and cannot get my previously downloaded Kindle books

    I installed ios6 on my ipad and now cannot get my previously downloaded Kindle books.  The error message says to remove them
    from the ipad and then redownload but they want uninstall.

    Well this was my first time using the support communities app on the web so when I tried to get the answer there were literally 1000's of post and I was not sure which one pertained to me and my iPhone issue. Sorry if I offended in some manner, didn't mean to.
