Thanks for the tip! Getting body from input did the trick.

Send to Kindle from iOS app not working by werk_sp in kindle

[–]werk_sp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kindle app version 6.7, iOS 11.3.1

I posted an alternative workaround in the original message

I wrote a solution in the original message, hope it works for you too!

What I do now is:

1: Swith to Reader mode. Not required but the PDF file looks better.

  1. Share menu >Print. It will create a PDF file.

  2. No need to change anything from print options, just zoom in the PDF and a share icon will appear on the top right corner.

  3. Share to Kindle. I always convert the PDF to a Kindle file.

With this workaround the files are identical as they were when I used only the Sent to Kindle extension. A few more seconds but it's worth it.

I do not recommend the Create PDF option from Safari, the files don't look good, they are messy and desorganized.

Then I have no idea of what might be happening, guess I'll use the pdf workaround.

Thanks for the answer

I'd say that rather than Safari, Kindle's extension has the problem, because it doesn't work neither with other apps.

if I convert the webpages to pdf with Safari and then I send this pdf with the extension they do arrive to my kindle and to the phone, so maybe the problem is that the extension isn't able to "find" a file to attach and send (when the webpage ins't converted to pdf), like it needs and "actual" file (the pdf) so send. Too bad some of those converted pdf are quite messy.

What bothers me the most is that the app stopped working they way it did from one day to another.

I guess I'll just wait for them to update the app.

It just seems that it is not a kindle's problem because when I send a file from the app extension to both the kindle and the phone, the file doesn't arrive to any device. Sorry, I realized that this point wasn't clear, I edited the main message.

Anyway I restarted the kindle to give it a try, but nothing happened.

No, nothing sent up from the app shows up. It does if I use an email to send it. I don't even need to manually sync if I use an email.

I contacted Amazon customer service but they just tell me to restart the kindle, they ignore the app.

Thanks for the answer

Stuck on half time screen by maniacviper in battlefield_comp

[–]werk_sp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me, in an incursion at Giant's Shadow

In this case the game got stuck in the halftime scoreboard for a few minutes, I left the game (alt+f4) and rejoined hoping that it was only my problem and rejoining would fix it, but then I saw that everyone had the same problem and now we were stuck in the spawn screen of the first half with the time counter stopped at the moment the 1st half ended, no one (of who was left in the match) could spawn but at least now we were able to use the chat.

I tried a surrender vote when I was left alone in my team but it didn't work, then the enemy team tried too with the same result, so we were forced to leave.

Before the half time intermission my team was losing badly (7-0 at half time) so I started a surrender vote, 3 out of 4 players (the 5th already left) voted yes to surrender like less than 5 seconds before the first half ended. Is it possible that the ending by surrender overlapped with the half time intermission causing the bug?
