Error syncing with recent versions....
I've tried updating for 4 releases now, hoping it was just a small problem that would be corrected. but I cannot put anything onto my Sony PRS-500 for some time now. I keep getting this error
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device Could not create file /Data/media/books/The Market Ticker [Fri, 20 Nov 2009] - calibre_15617.lrf. Response code: 0xffffffd7L Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 57, in run File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 224, in _upload_books File "site-packages\calibre\devices\prs500\driver.py", line 172, in run_session File "site-packages\calibre\devices\prs500\driver.py", line 896, in upload_books File "site-packages\calibre\devices\prs500\driver.py", line 172, in run_session File "site-packages\calibre\devices\prs500\driver.py", line 708, in put_file File "site-packages\calibre\devices\prs500\driver.py", line 172, in run_session File "site-packages\calibre\devices\prs500\driver.py", line 674, in touch PathError: Could not create file /Data/media/books/The Market Ticker [Fri, 20 Nov 2009] - calibre_15617.lrf. Response code: 0xffffffd7L My SD card is FAT 32 formated and has 235 books on it. There are no books on the internal memory since I reset the device thinking perhaps it was an error with my reader. Any suggestions? Currently installed 0.6.24 on Win XP SP3 thought the whole thing may be a moot point soon since my PRS-500's battery life is now measured in hours instead of days. |

Nothing has changed in the calibre PRS 500 driver for a long time. That error message indicates the directory
/Data/media/books is missing in your SONY reader main memory |

Run the command
ebook-device mkdir /Data/media/books |
