@crissman: Ha! Now we're talking!
Which version of the plugin are you using? The release, or my patched version? |

@crissman: There's a full plugin in the .zip attached to the thread I linked. Just install it from calibre's plugin manager.

@crissman: Huh. Then I'm stumped, sorry :/.
(I mainly work with AZW3 files, and I've never had any trouble, FWIW). |

The only reason I had even thought to try it was because I had tried to put a book on another kindle paperwhite and it kept crashing it in the AZW3 and so I tried a mobi format and it worked perfectly. Now as to why in my case it seems to be AZW3 specific in which this occurs and not in MOBI I have no idea. Not being a programmer and just a user I also have no clue. Thanks for giving a try though.

SOLVED IT!!
Ok this makes no sense to me whatsoever, but since it was working in the MOBI format I concluded that it was not my database or id's or anything like that and since I determined that it was also not any of my metadata templates, the only thing left that I could see left to try was the AZW3 output options. I unchecked the option for "Enable sharing of book content via Facebook, etc WARNING: Disables last read Syncing" reconverted to AZW3 --->send books to device ---> create collections from kindle collections ---> import collections from calibre via CM Voila, success, collections now auto-populate with books in AZW3 No clue as to how or why this fixed it but it did.

Ha ! Forgot about that... That setting strips the ASIN, which explains everything .

Guess I will just have to wait now for Amazon to update the PW1 with the goodreads option that is available to the PW2! Chrysandra |

Argh, I'm an idiot. Is there any way to downgrade from 5.4.2 to 5.3.9? I forgot to check if the Collections Manager would be compatible, or rather I didn't expect it at all to be already, with the Paperwhite 2. Or is an update for the Collections Manager planned in the coming days/weeks that would allow me to use it on the 5.4.2 version?

@crissman: Apparently, for what it says on the box: make sharing work, at the expense of sync.
Possibly, if your book comes from Amazon, and thus has a valid ASIN, sharing would work. I've never played much with this side of things, but that would mirror the thumbnails behavior, so it's not completely out of the realm of possibilities... @cryzed: Wait. They pushed 5.4.2 for the PW1, too? EDIT: Nope. So, you're not losing much, no CM version ever supported FW 2.4.x (ie. the PW2), and no 5.3.x FW version will ever run on the PW2.

Not yet, hoping for it, I kinda like the goodreads options. You will have to let me know what you think of it? Is it worth the upgrade? Crissman Last edited by crissman; 11-23-2013 at 01:23 PM. |
