Covers in K4PC

djulian · 04-02-2012, 10:49 AM

I cannot get the cover to stick and show in K4PC. I've created the file as an ePub through Sigil, properly set up the cover in the OPF file--it even works properly in the Kindle Previewer software!--but whether I convert to a MOBI file through Kindle Previewer or through Calibre, the cover will not show up in the Kindle For PC library view.

As I write the above, I'm beginning to think the problem is Kindle 4 PC? Anyone else experiencing this? Any thoughts?

The 1.9.x versions do not show covers of non-Amazon books, at least they do not in my library.

Well that's no fun.

Well, no ASIN code available, because I'm working on a book that I've made myself. I contacted Amazon, and it sounds like it is an issue w/ the 1.9.x software; I tried reinstalling 1.8.2, and the covers worked just fine.
