Kindle stuck

All the books were still there and guess what? It jammed again today - so I did the same thing and it worked. Maybe I am becoming a techie?

Do you loose all the books on it if you have to do a reset or does everything just start up again where you left off?

Mine also. I just reboot it and it's ok!

My iPad does the same thing sometimes. Can press Home button 100 times to no effect. Took it to the Apples shop, and of course it worked perfectly for the young man there!!! Touch wood its okay at the moment, but will try the above if it plays up again.

Mine did exactly the same on the train back from London one night - mega-frustration!! Put it on charge with no success and then looked at the trouble-shooting online and did what you have done and it worked holding in the on/off button for 20 secs to "reset" it. Nasty few moments there!

That used to happen fairly often with my old one (the one I dropped and had to have replaced). It is really worrying. I did always manage to re-start it by a lot of holding the on/off button and clicking on various bits and pieces. It just seemd to require an extra bit of waking up! Very worrying. So far new one hasn't done it. Fingers crossed.
