Couldn't find the "uninstall updates" option so I also uninstalled the whole app and downloaded it again from Market. Not only was my old library there, but so were the three free books/samples I was trying to download! -KristinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948414068016926304.post-60441700227545770162012-02-05T20:29:22.363-08:002012-02-05T20:29:22.363-08:00Great, glad to hear it!Great, glad to hear it!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03184290623181367067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948414068016926304.post-58593475836669220502012-01-30T15:37:23.200-08:002012-01-30T15:37:23.200-08:00Thanks Chris,

Then i started having issues as mentioned above couldn't retrieve etc. I was messing around in Google books trying to find anything that would help and a window popped up and said i needed to turn sync on to allow the online library sync and download to my phone. I looked and couldn't find where to turn that on and off then dawned on me to Check my phone settings and found accounts@ sync like you mentioned under settings. I ran the test turned off and couldn't retrieve then turned sync back on and it worked. So yes it is looked under settings then accounts@sync. Hope this works for everyone.catsrfavshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05723553684831450123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948414068016926304.post-1071356556182501852012-01-26T19:20:49.845-08:002012-01-26T19:20:49.845-08:00Hi catsrfavs thanks for posting!

All attempts to get free samples from the market gave the error.
