1. Try a simple restart before you begin. Sometimes a Kindle can get stuck in a flux position between on and off. The screen might quickly freeze, or the buttons might temporarily not happen to work. Simply turn off your Kindle. Plug it into the wall so that it can charge up. Turn the Kindle back on. It is best to try this first, that way you don't have to go through the hassle of fixing a minor problem.
2. Choose either a soft or hard reset(factory default). A soft reset will not erase any secure passwords, or delete any digital books. Soft resets are mainly for making your Kindle run faster, or resetting a frozen home screen. A hard reset will delete all data, and restore your Kindle to factory settings. This is a last resort measure, meant for Kindles experiencing large-scale glitches, continuously frozen screens, internal damage, etc. If you have already repeatedly tried a soft reset, it maybe time to give a hard reset a try. Amazon offers great customer service as well, which can help you decide on which option is best for you. If you have accidentally dropped your Kindle, or dunked it in water, it maybe best to hand your Kindle off to a professional. Amazon offers a free replacement if you are still inside of your warranty period. If you are outside of the warranty period, they can send you a refurbished Kindle at a discounted price.
3. Charge up your Kindle. This is critical for either a soft or a hard reset. Plug your Kindle in using the power cord which came with your device. Make sure the battery bar at the top of your home screen is completely filled up. Once the battery is charged, remove the Kindle from the power cord. You will need your Kindle to be have at least forty percent battery life in order to perform a hard reset.
4. Back up any crucial passwords and files. When you wipe your Kindle, you will lose everything that you put on it. Content that you purchased through Amazon will remain linked to your account and can be re-downloaded. However, third-party e-books and apps need to be saved separately. This can be done by attaching your Kindle to your laptop by using a USB cord. You will want to click drag everything over to special folder in your downloads section.
