I'm UK based and recently tried installing the Kindle for Mac app, note the tried. (I have a 2009 iMac running Snow Leopard)

When trying to register, the app would only connect to the US Amazon store rather than the UK one where, naturally, my account is held. I pointed the app at the UK store and it registered ( I checked my settings on Amazon to confirm this) so I decided to grab one of the free books and hit the sync button. The app still tried to access the US store.

After going round in circles for a while, I gave up. I've tried to uninstall the app and re-install it but it just does the same. Last night I downloaded the Kindle for iPhone and it worked straight away and downloaded the free book that I'd grabbed earlier.

Any clues as to what I've done wrong?
