It's frozen. Why doesn't it open or shut down?

Computers do this some times. Press and hold the power button for 2 or 3 minutes until it shuts down completely. Then turn it back on.

I have pushed every button to turn it off and nothing happens. It is frozen

Depending on why your tablet is frozen, pressing the "Power" button -- sometimes called the "Sleep/Wake" button -- might turn it off. Some tablets give you the option to restart or shut down; if you have this choice, pick the option to shut down the tablet completely. If pressing the button once doesn't do the trick, hold it down for 15 to 20 seconds -- this often forces the tablet into shut-down mode.

When playing games on my Kindle Fire 7" HD, the apps unexpectedly close and return to home screen

When was the last time the tablet was turned off (not just put into sleep mode)?
To turn off the tablet, hold the power button for two or three seconds, then tap "shut down" when asked if you want to shut down your Kindle.
After the device has completely turned off, press the power button to restart.

Please reply with more information if this did not fix your problem!

Screen frozen

You can try doing a hard reset by holding the power button and the home button down simultanously until the device completely shuts off and the Apple logo appears.

Hope that helps!

Kindle Fire

Press and hold the power button for fifteen seconds or so. If it prompts whether you want to shut down, ignore it and keep the power button pressed until it shuts off. Release the button, then press and hold for a second or two until it starts to reboot. Does it reboot and operate normally now?
