Error when connecting to PRS-505

I get this error message when I try to view my PRS-505 via Calibre.

Job: **Get list of books on device**
**IOError**: (2, 'No such file or directory')
**Traceback**:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre\gui2\device.pyo", line 20, in run
File "calibre\gui2\device.pyo", line 122, in _books
File "calibre\devices\prs505\driver.pyo", line 321, in books
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: u'P:\\database/cache/media.xml'

edit: forgot to add I'm using windows XP and version 4.132

Does anyone know any work arounds or what I did wrong?

I'd appreciate any and all help,
Thanks

Connect your PRS505 and using windows explorer create the directories

P:\database\cache

I did that but got the same error message as before. also, I can't find the media.xml file...

EDIT: please ignore this post. I figured out what had happened. For some reason the internal card was assigned to the D: drive which is already allocated to a mapped networked drive and because there was a conflict...the program could not find the original database file? At least that's my theory because once I changed the drive letter the program was able to detect my device.
