I just updated my Jetbook from 34c (installed by factory) to 35m (downloaded from Ectaco website).

My txt files and pdf files can still be read, but every epub gets "Failed to open file!" message.

My epubs are from a variety of sources. None of them have drm. All these epubs did open before.

Answer found: I was using the naming convention "last, first#title" for all my books. This still works for the txt and pdf files, but NO LONGER WORKS for the epubs. I have renamed each file. Setting the name to "last, first_title" works for epubs.

I've updated the post in case someone else has the same problem.
