Hello

I have been using calibre with my Sony Prs 650 ereader for several years and I am very happy with the combination. I also have a kindle and a Nook. I have overcome a couple of issues with the format of some epub books over the years.

I am wondering if anyone familiar with the forums can direct me to a thread where I can find a solution for my current problem. With all the forums/threads generated over the years it looks overwhelming.

I downloaded an epub book from Kobo which I can read in calibre. Unfortunately, the original epub book does not open in my Sony, it just initiates a reboot and returns to the home page. I tried doing an epub to epub conversion which has worked before with vaguely similar issues. Now I can view the cover page on the sony but it just reboots when I try to move to the next page. I have just added it to my Nook and it seems to work fine there.
Any help anyone can give me to get me talkingto someone in the right forum/thread will be greatefully accepted.

Hello and welcome to MobileRead!

I suggest you ask for advice in the Sony subforum:
