For the big day - Registering a Kindle

    As it says, our daughter will receive one of the above Kindles for the big day.

    I want to register the Kindle to the UK and need to know what the latest info is with doing this as previous threads seem to contain conflicting information.

    our daughter does not have a credit card so it will be mine!

    I have an amazon account but my daughter does not (AFAIK!). I can use a UK address to register the Kindle.

    Kindle was bought at Dublin Airport

    Any help appreciated.

    It's a while since I registered - you will need to connect it to your wifi - so if you are in Ireland, it will automatically connect to amazon.com when you go into the settings to register.

    That's ok though - it's easy enough to transfer to the .co.uk site afterwards, by going into manage your kindle, and changing country settings. I think you have to have wifi turned off to do that, as otherwise it will recognise that you're not in the UK.

    The kindle takes a long to charge up - so plug it in these evening.

    Great present

    If bought in the airport it'll be registered to the .com site. So either set your account up on the .co.uk or .com site, it doesn't matter. Once you input your details to the unit (email address and password) you're sorted then and will be able to shop from the .com store!
