Can't Connect Kindle to Calibre
Everytime I try to connect my Kindle Gen 3 to Calibre, I get the following error message. I have uninstalled and re-installed Calibre to no effect. Help, please!

I am not an expert on error messages but it looks like the file system is read only which is an os thing.
for windows open kindle drive from my computer. right click on media and select properties and it will show you in the window if it is read only Helen |
