Music

You can view your music library by tapping Music on the Home screen. Once you’ve chosen the music you want to listen to, tap the name of the song to play it. You can create a playlist from the Playlists tab.

To play a group of songs—such as an album, all songs by an artist, or a playlist—tap any song in the group. The entire group will begin playing from the song name you selected.

While listening to music, view the music you have queued to play by tapping the music player control at the bottom of the Music library or store, then tapping the list view icon in the upper right of the Now Playing screen. You can adjust the volume by using the music player controls or by tapping the Quick Settings icon in the Status bar.

You can add music to your Music library in three ways:

•Purchase it from the Music store. Tap “Store >” in the top right corner of the Music library screen to browse the Amazon Music store. When you purchase music, you will be asked whether to store your music in the cloud or download it to your device. If you download your purchase, it will not be stored in the cloud. If you choose to store it in the cloud, you can later download it from there to your device.

•Upload it from the music collection on your computer (such as iTunes) to your Amazon Cloud

Drive via Amazon’s Cloud Player website (www.amazon.com/cloudplayer). The Cloud Player website supports uploading from both Mac OS and Windows computers.

•Transfer it directly from your computer to your Kindle Fire via a micro-USB cable (sold sepa- rately). Please note that only MP3 (.mp3) and AAC (.m4a) files are supported in your Music library.

You can make music stored in the cloud available offline so you can play it when you don’t have connectivity (for example, on an airplane). Simply tap Cloud in your Music library, then press and hold any playlist, artist, album, or song and select the “Download” option. Your downloaded music will be available in the Device tab of your Music library for playback offline.

Video

You can watch videos by tapping Video on the Home screen. The Video store on your Kindle Fire provides access to more than 100,000 movies and TV shows. Amazon Prime members get streaming access to over 10,000 movies and TV shows at no additional cost (restrictions apply).

To rent or purchase a movie or TV show, from within the Video store either browse or enter a title in the search bar. Upon purchase, tap Watch Now for instant playback, or tap Download to save the video to your device to watch later. Instant playback and downloading require a Wi-Fi connection, while downloaded videos can be watched offline. To watch a movie or TV show you’ve already purchased or rented, tap Library and select a title.

To find a Prime instant video, you can browse the Prime titles on the home page of the Video store, apply the Prime filter while browsing a video category, or search for videos that have a Prime logo. Although Prime instant videos cannot be downloaded, the same videos are generally available for rental and/or purchase and can then be downloaded for viewing offline. For eligibility details and more information, go to: www.amazon.com/help/primevideo

During video playback, you can tap the screen to access movie controls such as volume and pause. Amazon’s Whispersync technology keeps track of your location in the video, so you can resume watching where you left off on your Kindle Fire, PC, Mac, or any of hundreds of compatible TVs, Blu-ray players, and other devices.
