Ok I have some old screensavers that I want to take off... When I go to the folder and delete it, and add a new folder in it's place with new screensavers the old ones still show up... And I don't see the new ones at all... I must be doing something wrong... Even when I delete the folder, I still see the old screensavers when they should be gone...

There's a thread somewhere where I explain how to remove the screensavers, but it was so long ago I don't remember... I'll try to find it, LOL!

Ok the only problem is that I have Windows 7, and I have no idea where the location is for finding hidden folders... And regular folders in general... Finding the setting is like looking for a needle in a hay stack  Click on the "Organinze" menu option, then select "Folder and search options":  Click the "View" tab and toggle the "Show hidden files..." option:  |

From the link to Leslie's FAQ post, it looks like you may have to create the directories yourself on the K1. But as a K2 user, I'm not sure, so I'll let someone who's actually done it on a K1 (ooh...that sounds dirty) clarify that for you. (Hopefully someone will come along soon.) |

I'm not sure, she says in her post that the Kindle creates this secret folder...I've done the setting for showing the hidden files from your directions But the darn folder isn't showing up lol... I just want to delete a few screensavers so I can add some new ones in... I know how to add the new ones.. That's no problem, I can wait... Thanks Betsy EDIT: I've did everything as said.. But when I go into the Kindle (K:) drive, and into the Pictures Folder I only see screensavers... I still don't see screen_savers folder... I really need to take off some screensavers, I've had the same ones for almost a year... |
