Getbooks not searching Amazon

[Holydoc]

I noticed while searching with Getbooks that Amazon was not showing up in the search results. I then cleared all stores except for the 6 Amazon selections and searched again for a book I knew was on Amazon. I received the message:

"Couldn't find any books matching your query."

I used the:

Title: Wired

This book is an ebook that is free today on Amazon. I received the same message that it could not be found.

Thanks again for such a wonderful program!

Sometime in the last few days Amazon changed their websites (worldwide) in a way that broke calibre's getbooks. We are fixing the problem for release in the next version of calibre. We are also looking at ways to be able to react more quickly to this kind of situation.

Thanks for taking the time to report the problem.

The fix has been released.

We also changed get books so that we can fix connecting to a store without requiring an update to calibre. This change will let us respond much more quickly to problems. Of course, we can only fix problems we know about, so thanks again for taking the time to tell us.
