    My kindle has stopped working properly too after one of us squished the home screen button with a load of books so it has stopped working. I have got a replacement minus that button which has picked up my library. I made the mistake of leaving the synchronise devices checked and poor DH lost his place in the book he was reading (we share his account). He was not happy. My iPad is plodding on, but cannot take modern apps as it is such an old version of the operating system so I use it for mail, newspaper and a Sudoku app, and occasionally FB. I can manage. 

    Hopefully with a new day your fall out will have receded a bit and bridges can be built.
