Can anyone help with this problem please? Today I have tried to use my Kindle to use PayPal to pay for a small item. I keep getting a message that I probably need to update my browser, but this is proving somewhat problematic. Any ideas?

Question Author
Kindle Fire HD. My usual browser is Silk.
It could be that the PayPal site (or whichever site you were accessing PayPal through) simply doesn't like Silk. (I've visited a website this evening which told me that it couldn't function properly because I was using an out-of-date version of Internet Explorer - despite the fact that I was actually using the latrst version of Firefox!).

Try . . .
1. Clearing the cache and cookies from Silk:

2. Checking that the software for your Fire HD is up to date:

3. Using a different browser:
