Connected to the Calibre connector

Calibre did not respond in any noticable way.

Oh well. At least ODPS still works.

Hello everybody,

I have an iPad and a MacBook running Yosemite. I installed the iOS Reader Applications plugin, I customized it for iBooks but my iPad is not recognized by Calibre.

Am I doing something wrong? Is the plugin compatible with Yosemite?

Thank you very much for your help.

Larry

PeterT · 12-20-2014, 03:05 PM

@Laurentiu: What versions of all items do you have?

Laurentiu · 12-20-2014, 03:49 PM

I have an iPad 2 (not Air) and I am running the last version of Calibre 2.13 on Mac OS X Yosemite. The plugin version is 1.4.4.

eschwartz · 12-20-2014, 08:33 PM

The iPad 2 not-Air already has a USB ID in the plugin I believe, so that isn't the solution. People have had it work for them in your situation, it *should* work fine in Yosemite.

Perhaps someone else will have ideas...

Hmmmm... Yet, when I plug in my iPad nothing happens. Calibre doesn't show it as a device (the icon is missing)

Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Gurvan · 12-21-2014, 02:30 AM

2 things...

- make sure that your iPhone (or another iDevice) is not plugged in at the same time...
- if you are using Marvin (Which I suppose ?) that it is in the "Get Books" mode (Library page - bottom right...).

Otherwise with which software on the iPad, are you using this plugin ?

The iPad is the only device plugged in. And I am using (or at least trying to) iBooks.

ShellShock · 12-21-2014, 08:17 AM

I don't think iBooks suport works anymore in the IOSRA plugin. Search this thread for "iBooks" and you will see someone else had the same problem. Probably due to a change in IOS or iTunes.

Laurentiu · 12-21-2014, 11:05 AM

I managed to make it work with Marvin. It"s a pity that it doesn't work with iBooks (I still like the app, perhaps it's just a matter of habit since I never used Marvin before)

Either way, it's good to be able to load the books directly from Calibre instead of going through iTunes+etc.

Hi....I just recently upgraded to an iPad Air 2 from iPad Air. I was using Marvin XD and Calibre worked beautifully prior to my upgrade. Now Calibre does not recognize Marvin running on my ipad when I try to connect and get books. I have all the latest Calibre, ios Reader and Marvin apps and plugins. I also am getting this error when trying to customize ios Reader plugin:

Thanks for any help....

The plugin is out of date (not Calibre 2.x compatible)

@tfwarner

Are you sure you're using the plugin modified by Mr. Goodbar and posted by him and Eschwartz in this thread (not talking about the one posted in the OP, which is outdated)? I am using that one with my Air 2 and it works flawlessly...
If you don't have it already, try it, it should work: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=342

@korbus

Thanks! Now for a totally amateur question...How do I import/install the contents of this zip file into Calibre and get it to work. I'm not even seeing this as a plugin to get within Calibre. There is only one ios reader plugin and it's not by this guy. Thanks for any help!
