Just spent the last hour trying to get The Book Blueprint going, ended up taking this advice and dropping the review. I really wanted to read the book as I love writing, but based on my own experience, and the length of this thread, .mobi files seem to be a lot more trouble than they're worth.Dolor wrote: ↑21 Dec 2017, 17:29On the RT page, choose to drop the book review. You will be asked your reasons. There you can reason out. That's it. It's not your fault so you will not b blamed for it.Meggie Lou wrote: ↑21 Dec 2017, 10:24 I give up! I open the file but no matter what I do the formatting won’t let me see the full pages. I have tried to report the error but it won’t let me until I update my status and say I downloaded a working copy of the ebook, which I absolutely WONT do because I haven’t. The only other option is to come here to the support topic. There is nothing further that I am willing to do.
To have your heart at peace, you may send private messages to Scott and Gali.

I somehow managed to open the book in Kindle on a laptop. I think the .mobi books fail to open on universal readers.

You have to download the actual Kindle app onto your computer - I couldn't use Kindle Cloud. I typed "Kindle App for PC" into Google and it brought up the Amazon link. Go to the Amazon link for "Amazon: Kindle for PC [Download]: Software" and then choose to download for Mac or PC. It's free, but you have to go through the process like you're actually buying something - put it in your cart, check out, and then "payP. Afterwards, make sure to go back to the product page and click on the link that says "Your Software Library." That will take you to a page that lists Kindle for PC (or Mac, if that's the case) and you click download.
Once I did that, I went into my downloads folder on my computer, right-clicked, chose "open with," and then chose "Kindle." I hope this helps!
