The you could use the "search" button under the menu options to locate the relevant section of text to start reading. If the Kindle eBook version being used for your class does not support page numbers, perhaps the instructor can give the opening sentence or phrase for the beginning and of the assigned reading sections. Perhaps you can ask your instructor to provide a direct link to the Kindle eBook version being used for your class? Your sighted colleagues probably need this function, too.
When you first open a file in Kindle for Mac, the app saves a copy and will. Sometimes there are multiple eBook versions, and old versions of the eBook do not support page numbers, since support for this feature on the Kindle was only added two or three years ago. My print edition has unexpected blank pages IngramSpark warns that my PDF. If the go to page feature is not present among the menu options for your Kindle eBook, I might try to check whether there is a version of this book that supports printed page numbers. Kindle books that support printed page numbers should have an entry under the "Product Details" heading of their Amazon web page that lists the "Print length" in pages and includes an entry for "Page number source ISBN" that identifies the printed book version used for page numbering. For example, in the above case where I have navigated to page 98 of 182, if I double tap in the center of the screen to bring up the menu controls, and then either use a four-finger tap on the bottom half of the screen to move to the last element or else slide my finger up from the home button, I'll hear VO announce both the page number and location information: "50%, of 182, Loc 1490 of 2985". If you only see the option for going to a location, then the page navigation option is not supported.įor Kindle books where printed page number information and navigation is supported, you'll also be able to access this information just below the page chooser slider at the bottom of the page. If the ability to navigate to a specific (printed) page number is supported, one of the available menu option buttons when you flick right will be "Page…" It should appear just before the "Location…" button, and when you double tap it you'll get a pop up dialogue like "Go to Page, Enter a page number between 1 and 182." with a text field for typing in the page you want. In that case, Steve's directions are correct: you first double tap in the center of the screen to bring up the menu and view options (VoiceOver says "menu on"), then you double tap the "menu" button in the top left corner of the screen. The truth is that there is no real page number in any book, and this has been true for as long as books have been printed. They say there is no real page number in an ebook.
The book must correspond to a book that is published in printed format (it cannot be a book that is only issued in electronic format). Answer (1 of 13): Every other answer is wrong. The ability to navigate to the pages of a printed book in the Kindle app does not exist for all Kindle books.
