Kindle app problem since Lion Installed

Hi All,
I think Lion is terriffic, aesthetic disasters aside. Everyting seems to work okay except my Kindle for Mac app.
When I opened it today all the books under the Home tab were present, correct and readable
Unfortunately the books in the archived section had all been deleted. I tried re-downloading a couple of them but they did not arrive. I found them elsewhwere on the Amazon site as "pending downloads".
The problem does not exist on my iPhone. The archived books are still present.
I don't know if it is Lion or Kindle app problem or both of them.
Can anyone help?
Thanks guys :-)

It could be some filepermission problems.
Run repair filepermissions in diskutility.
Reboot.
Remove folder ~/library/application support/kindle
Remove ~/library/preferences/com.amazon.Kindle.plist
Remove ~/library/preferences/com.amazon.Kindle.plist.lockfile
Remove ~/applications/Kindle
Empty trash
Reboot again (dont know if this is necessary)
Go to Amazon website and manage your kindle
deregister your computer
Install Kindle from AppStore (not from Amazon)
Start kindle and register.
Go to Amazon again.
Select your items and action deliver to your computer.
Sync and wait for your items to download.

    I purchased the Lion last night and when I woke up this morning, the App store said Lion installed but when I check 'about this mac', my imac is still in 10.6.8. Tried the software update and reboot, it is still the same. Is there an option to redownload and install Lion again?

  • IPhone Calendar not syncing correctly with iCal since Lion-install

    Since installing Lion, the calendar on my iPhone is not syncing correctly:
    Events created on my iPhone don't show on my Mac
    Events edited on my iPhone don't change on my Mac
    Events that I created in iCal on my Mac, for test-purposes, and then deleted immediately, show up on the iPhone when syncing.
    Syncing through iTunes (not MobileMe).
    Using WeekCal on my iPone, but it seems that the same is the case with the "original" calendar-app.
    No similar experience prior to Lion-install.
    iPhone is iOS 4.3.4 -up to date
    Any ideas? Does anybody know how to reset the sync, for instance?

    Hi, my name is Lucas, i'm an Apple Certified Technitian.
    Last couple of weeks i've installed OSX Lion in a few Macs.
    But one of them drove me crazy!
    I have a Late 2007 White Macbook and i installed OSX Lion last week. I also have an iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) that i also updated to IOS 4.3.5 ... no problems syncing between them
    Then i did the same with a 13'' Unibody MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4 (not unlocked)... no problems neither
    Yesterday i installed Lion on a Mid2010 15" MacBook Pro and updated another iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) to IOS 4.3.5 and when i tried to sync the iphone with iTunes 10.4 nothing happened.
    I mean, nothing.. the iTunes started syncing and when it gets to sync the calendars it stayied there forever.
    I left it for hours and nothing.
    As i said i'm an ACT so i tried everything.
    1- Remove Calendars from iPhone and syncing again
    1- Repair Permittions
    2- Reinstall iTunes
    3- Reset iTunes and iCal Preferences and Caches
    4- Backup iCal - erase ical content and generate a new iCal database
    5- Reset Syncing Prefs and logs
    6- Use DiskWarrior from an external OSX
    7- Reset PRAM
    Nothing worked.
    I thought it could be some conflict with Microsoft Outlook and/or Exchange server since this Mac is the only one of the three macs i installed that uses Outlook Sync and Exchange server and it's the only one that gave me trouble.
    But disableing it didn't worked neither.
    THE SOLUTION
    I Already solved this thing out. But i still don't understand the logic of all this... anyway, what y did is this:
    1- turn off microsoft outlook sync with iCal (from outlook preferences)
    2- Backed up iCals (Just in case)
    3- Create a new Calendar Category (by default you have Work and Home... i created one called Test)
    4- i Created a new task at that calendar
    5- In iTunes uncheck the "Sync iCal" box and sync the iPhone
    6- Check th "Sync iCal" box, then check the "sync the selected calendars" box
    7- Check the "Test" calendar and sync the iPhone.
    This worked so i started creating task in this Test Calendar both in iphone and mac, just to test it, Worked fine.
    Then i selected all the other calendars (Home - Work - etc) and i turned on the outlook sync
    Then i synced the iPhone and Voilà everything is working again.
    Now i can create task in outlook calendar and when y sync the iphone it appears on it.
    I don't know what the problem is... but this looks like the solution
    HOpe it works for you!

  • HT4623 App problems since downloading iOS 6

    Ever since installing ios6 I have been unable to download several apps. These apps include, Facebook, twitter and various others.
    Has anybody else experienced this?

    I've been having a similar problem with my KINDLE app in my iPhone 4s since the iOS6 update.  I receive the message "internal-error."   I've tried deleting and reinstalling the app but still get the same error.  Is that the message you're getting?

  • Why do all iWork '09 apps crash after Lion install?

    Pages, Numbers and Keynote all crash immediately when I open them after I installed Lion. I have already installed the update posted by Apple twice but it still does exactly the same thing.
    This is the first part of the (long) crash report I get:

    The crash report is telling you that a critical part of Pages is missing - Inventor.framework.
    I'd suggest deleting your iWork '09 folder and its apps, reinstalling them from DVD or the Mac App Store and updating to iWork 9.1.
    If there are any issues with this it's likely that iWork '09 was not fully deleted. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that entirely deletes iWork. Search this forum and you'll find a few messages linking to this script.

  • IPad mini iOS7 and Kindle app problem

    I downloaded the iOS7 upgrade, and now I cannot access the multiple books on my Kindle app for iPad.  Went to Kindle help, where they say I needed to download an upgrade BEFORE I upgraded the iPad to iOS7.  A little late to know that now.
    I tried just upgrading the Kindle app now, but still cannot gain access.  I have dozens of books waiting to be read, and I can't get to them.  Is there anyone else who has had this problem who can help me?  I'm not very tech savvy, you'll have to put it in plain English

    A soft-reset (i.e. a reboot) is done by pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignoring the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content.

  • Kindle app bookmarks after iOS7 install

    After installing iOS 7 on my iPad, all bookmarks on everything I was reading and have read on my Kindle app disappeared.  Has anyone else seen this and did you discover a fix?  The Kindle techs were... clueless. 

    I have a resolution update for this: Delete any third party flashlight apps on your phone. Perform a backup on your phone. Restore the phone to factory settings then restore the phone from your backup. After doing that, the flashlight utility on the menu and the photo flash on my phone started working again.
    I was pretty sure this was a software issue but I took the phone into an Apple store over the weekend. They did the factory reset at the store then checked the phone for hardware issues, none were found. They ordered a replacment phone for me which I will call to cancel today. When I got home and restored the phone from my backup, I discovered the LED was working again.
    Hope this helps.

  • My Late 2009 27" iMac i7 wake up problems after LION installed

    About 5 or 6X, My iMac has had wake up problems after I installed LION.  The screen wakes but the trackpad or mouse are frozen.  I have to do a hard shut down (pressing the power button) for system to work correctly.  When I power on the Mac, then everything functions.  NEVER had this issue with Safari!

    Exatly the same problem here with Lion on iMac 27" C2D late 2009.

  • Cannot search over wifi on external HD since Lion install

    Before Lion I could go to the Base station > external HD > click on a rather large file and search it.  Now after the Lion install when I do this the only results that show are the ones that are from "search this Mac" and I get nothing from the folders that are attached to the Base Station Extreme.  The only thing that is different is the install of Lion.
    Any suggestions?

    I'm not sure, you can try some basic troubleshooting such as resetting both the SMC and PRAM and doing a reboot in Safe Mode. Give each a try, on the SMC don't be afraid to do the 2-3x , sometimes it takes a couple of tries for it to stick.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Permission Problems Since Clean Install of Mt. Lion

    I did a clean install of Mountain Lion last month.  I reinstalled all my apps from freshly downloaded installers, rather than copy anything to my pristine system folder.  I copied my music, photos, and other documents from my Time Machine drive.  Now, I have constant permission problems on all these folders.  I don't have permission to do anything to any of these folders or subfolders.  I can't rip a CD to iTunes,  I can't sync my iPhone.  I can't download anything. I can change the permission on each folder individually, but there must be thousands of them.  There must be an easier way.  Changing permissions for a parent folder doesn't change the subfolders.  Disk Utility reports no problems when I repair disk permissions.  Thanks in advance for any help.
    Also, the iPhoto app disappeared after the clean install.  I don't know how to re-install it.  Do I have to wipe my drive clean again and install Leopard from  my original DVD that came with my iMac?  That would be a huge job to get back to Mountain Lion.  I'll post this question in another thread and link it here.

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’renot going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
