Transferring books to Reader

alroy · 03-01-2010, 11:15 AM

Whenever I transfer a PDF ebook to my reader, I get the error message, "a problem occurred with the program, it will have to shut down, do you wish to send a message Microsoft." I answer no, the program does not shut down but transfers the PDF file to my reader. It does this everytime I send a PDF ebook to the reader. It does not do this with ePub.

Does anyone else have this happen to them?

You can remove the error message by going to

Preferences->Plugins->Metadata writer plugins and disabling the PDF metadata writer.

Thanks, I did as you recommended. I assume I'll still be able to add metadata to the books I have on calibre. Some of the books I purchase load into calibre with author unknown.
