Connecting android device to Calibre? Not working the way it used to

starfishpaws · 04-21-2024, 07:58 PM

Hi,

I hope this isn't an obvious question, I've been searching for hours. I used to be able to connect my Android tablet as a device to Calibre to compare and sync the libraries. It would tell me which books were only in one location and allow me to send them to the other.

Well, I can't get that to work anymore. I just moved to Win 11, could that be the problem? I can get Content Server working just fine, but I can't get Calibre to see my tablet as a device.

If you have any ideas, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Can you see the files in "File Explorer"?

Actually I can't. Good point. Sounds like I need to fight with Win 11 to get the tablet recognized.

Thanks for helping out!
