Kindle Fire 8.9

Is there any way to get a 1024 x 768 folio file look good on a Kindle Fire HD 8.9 or do I have to do a completely different resolution for it to look good? Also, is there any time period in which an Android and/or Kindle Fire will support PDF-based FOLIOs and not JPG?

A 1024x768 folio will be letterboxed on the Kindle Fire HD 8.9. You can make it look better by creating a larger rendition. See this article: http://blogs.adobe.com/indesigndocs/2012/10/creating-dps-folios-for-android-devices.html
Supporting PDF on Android devices (and in the desktop viewer) is a high priority for the DPS team.

    Precisely why it's not an iPad, and why it doesn't cost very much.  An Apple rep would tell you how to connect an iPad to every computer.

  • How do I add a whitelist on AirPort Utility to connect a Kindle Fire?

    All of a sudden my daughter's Kindle Fire says it has no wireless connection even though I have the name and password entered correctly. Is this some type of update on the Kindle side? The Kindle tells me (when I tap on the connected wifi name for my computer) signal strength is excellent, status is connected, shows my security with a WPA and additional codes. I have been reading that there is a whitelist I can add devices too but am so illiterate on my MAC that I cannot find it or where to go...my apologies. What do I/ should I do? I am confused as to why I see the Kindle and my computer are connected to wifi but then I receive an error message. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

    There isn't a whitelist, per se, on the AirPort routers. Instead there is a means to prevent a wireless device from accessing the AirPort by its hardware MAC address. Unless you have enabled this feature, via the AirPort Utility, all wireless devices should be able to connect.
    One area to look at as a possible cause, is the Network Name (aka SSID) that you are using for your AirPort's Wi-Fi network. If it contains special characters or spaces, you may want to consider changing it to something that has neither to see if this helps.

  • Can I use my Kindle Fire with iTunes?

    Can I my Kindle Fire with iTunes?

    Not if you mean using iTunes to sync your music to your Kindle, no. You'll need to use whatever procedure Amazon provides for transferring tracks from the iTunes folder your computer to the Kindle.

  • How can I print from my Kindle Fire HD?

    How can I print from my Kindle Fire HD?  I have an e-printer (HP Photosmart 7510 C3lla e-All-In- Onew series).  I can print from my Apple I-Pad but cannot determine if/how I can print from the Kindle Fire HD.

    Android devices do not support built in printing liek airprint on your apple device, so you will have to use the HP Eprint Home and Biz app in order to print from that device. It is available for free in the Amazon Market.

  • Why can't I install the flash player on my Kindle Fire???

    I have tried several times to install the flash player on my Kindle Fire but it keeps telling me there is an issue opening the download. How am I able to download it yet am unable to install it. It makes no sense to me why it would be able to download yet not be able to open the installation. Is this a problem that is being fixed? I've tried to "troubleshoot" this issue myself but there is little information on it. If the Kindle Fire is unable to install the Adobe Flash player then there needs to be some changes made either on your companies part or Amazons. There are apps offered on the Kindles that need this flash player in order to operate. If you could back to me with an answer as soon as possible I would greatly aprreciate it. Thank you.

    Hi,
    Although we continue to provide security and patch releases for Android devices which originally shipped with Adobe Flash Player, new feature development for the Android browser has drawn to a close as we shift our focus to Adobe AIR for mobile applications. For more details on the rationale for our decision I refer you to the following article.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/flash-focus.html
    The following article describes how to manually install the Adobe Flash Player manually on your Android device.

    Another alternative is to install the SkyFire browser, which appears to support Flash Video.

  • HT3642 Does anyone know of an app for the Kindle Fire that will allow me to access my movies from my iTune account?

    I just purchased a Kindle Fire HD 8.9. I would like to be able to access my iTunes account to play my movies that I have purchased. Does anyone know if it is possible to do this and if so how? If not is there a way to download the movies to my computer so I could transfer them via USB?

    Since the documents are on the server and not your work computer it doesn't matter that your work computer is off.
    Usually computers on a work network are firewalled from the internet. Without knowing the details of your network it is impossible to know wether it is possible. Perhaps you should speak to the IT person at your work.
    If it is possible you will probably need an app that can access the documents on the server using a compatible protocol. I am not aware of an app that handles standard Windows file sharing. Goodreader can do ftp and webDAV. You may require something like webDAV enabled on the server.

  • How am i getting skype for free on my kindle fire

    I have Skype with my Kindle Fire HD I am not being charged it's always been free but since I got my laptop they want to charge me for skype I also asked my Fiancee if he had skype for free on his laptop he does so why am i getting the message to put money on a Skype card?

    Currently you can't selectively delete chat history on Skype for Kindle Fire HD. Only way to get rid of the complete history (together with all settings) is uninstalling and reinstalling the Skype app, I'm afraid.

  • SDK component Runtime.apk is out of date export captive build for Kindle Fire

    Hello
    Kindle fire only supports AIR 2.7 and I'm trying to export a build release in Flash Builder 4.7 with the AIR runtime included (captive build). Whenever I build I get the following error:
    SDK component at air/android/device/Runtime.apk is out of date
    I tried running the updater and it said I'm up to date. I did download the SDK and put it in my home folder but I can't seem to change the SDK reference in the preferences.
    (I had another java out of memory error including my ANE file but I turned it off just to get a build out. Not the focus of this discussion)
    It would be nice if flash builder just let me reference my freshly downloaded SDK but instead I have to sift through their document structure guessing where I should be updating the Runtime.apk that SHOULD be up to date already.
    I have had to go in to the package itself and modify the ini files and over-write the adb files from the fresh download of the SDK before.
    I'm guessing there is a way to update the Runtime.apk but i have so many bin executables spread all of my computer it's hard to tell what flash builder wants!!!
    There is always one problem after another developing with Flash Builder ... Please help.

    Just be sure you've downloaded the correct AIR 3.6 SDK specific to Flash Builder! On this page: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html in small print is this note:
    Note : Flex users will need to download the original AIR SDK without the new compiler. Mac Windows.
    Be sure to install the appropriate sdk if you're using Flex in your mobile project. Otherwise the main download will work with ActionScript only projects in Flash Builder 4.7
    Can you confirm you installed the correct SDK? Also with ANEs, it's important to identify what version of AIR the ANE supports.
    If you still run into trouble with your current configuration, try building a new mobile project and export release build with captive runtime and see if it compiles correctly. If it does, then it's going to be a problem with your current project, and I'd look at how the ANE is packaged. See if there's documentation on how to include the ANE, etc. If you still can't compile a blank mobile project, then your AIR installation is incorrect.

  • Kindle Fire & Adobe Air issues with scaling & bottom menu - GPU Mode only

    Hi,
    Long post ahead, please buckle down for a while.
    I'm having issues with the Kindle Fire and the bottom 20 pixel menu in GPU mode, CPU mode behaves correctly. The project was created with flash cs5.5, the stage size is 1024x600 and I've set the NO_SCALE flag. When the app is run on the Kindle Fire the Kindle scales it to 1024x580 for the bottom 20 pixel menu. If I create the project as 1024x580 it still scales it down and then centers it vertically introducing a 10pixel black bar at the top and I would assume a 10 pixel black bar at the bottom under their menu. In CPU mode the app is not scaled and the bottom 20 pixels is obscured.
    The problems I have encountered so far are incorrect mouse locations as reported in various mouse events. Messed up scrollRects when I try and clip something for display. Not being able to press buttons because of the incorrect mouse coordinates, the further down on the screen the more incorrect the buttons are. You can click below a button near the bottom of the screen and have it activate whereas a button at the top acts perfectly. This is due to the accumulated error value from the yPos * scaleValue.
    The mouse positions are off exactly by a scale factor of 600 / 580 (1.034).
    The video below shows the problems, sorry for the poor video handling. The red line in the video is drawn in the center of the y position detected on a mouse move and mouse down event, but shifted to the left for visibility. The center of that stylus is where it should be at all times, as you can see it isn't. You can also see displayed the buttons not working correctly, they are clearly being activated when the press on the screen is not over the button (indicated by the red line).
    The circle in the middle of the screen has it's scrollRect set to to the width and height of the circle, as you can see it is clipped.
    At the end of the video I press the power button then press it again to unlock, you can see the screen looks good for a split second then gets resized. Once resized the circle becomes clipped again. If I were fast enough I would assume the buttons would work correctly as well. Watch closely, it happens fast.
    Oh, and the app works fine on the desktop in either GPU or CPU mode. The app also works fine in GPU and CPU mode on my iPad2, Google HTC Nexus One, Nook Color and my 4th gen iPod Touch.
    Now whos issue is this? Adobes, Amazons or mine? I know what the problem is but don't know how to fix it.

  • Can't connect Kindle Fire HD to BT Home Hub 3

    I've just bought a Kindle Fire HD and can't get it to connect to my BT Home Hub (I think it's a 3) I have an ipad and iphone and they are connecting fine....help?

    See link for connecting an Android tablet. It should be more or less the same for a Kindle Fire.

    Make sure you use the wireless passkey found on the label of the hub and not the admin password or your email password.
