SAMSUNG 2 7" TABLET

Post by Sandra H »

Hi, i need help please
i purchased one of these about 6 weeks ago and yesterday i spend about 10 hours trying to down load some books i was given on a USB stick. I managed to eventually work out how to do it but i had to open an account with either kobo or Samsung can't remember which one, any way i was reading one of the books and tonight i went on line and guess what i have been locked out because the books were not purchased on line through this tablet.

I have calibre downloaded onto my computer and when i look at the folders on the tabet i can see the books there but i cannot get them onto the tablet to read now that i have been locked out. My laptop is a little to large to comfortable read the books.

Does anyone know how i can get to read the books on the tablet now that i am locked out of Sumsung account. If this is the way Samsung want to go then i would prefer not to have to log into the account again. I have managed to download free books tonight but i cannot access any of the others i got on there last night including the freebees.

It obviously works similar to Itunes but itunes allows you to add your own music without going online and logging into itunes.

Any ideas anyone. I am located in Brisbane and need all the help i can get. I am ready to throw the darn thing against the wall. Sorry i am so so ugggg.

All help appreciated.

Regards
Sandra :)

yep. You need to scour the free ebook readers, and d/l them and try them out till you find which ones work.
you should be able to open the tab as an extra drive on your pc and edit it as you want plus xfer the books :)
I put all my books into one folder so I can find them easily from any of the programs I use.
The samsung program and kindle are 2 you do not want. I am away from my tablet ATM so cannot tell you specifically the ones you want
Uninstall the ones that do not work for you

You have converted the books to the correct format that you need through Calibre?

Nini I think there was a Samsung 1 and a Samsung 2, 7".
Recently I investigated a Samsung Galaxy 2 which appears to be similar to the Apple iPod.
It's extremely hard to get anyone to give you an unbiased opinion on which is the better option.
