Calibre + Kindle = R/O

Hi,

I received a Kindle about six hours ago and now I can't add files either through Nautilus or Calibre. Being that other people have been having similar problems I think it's a Calibre issue. I haven't quite found the discussion on how exactly to unlock the device.

It's duplicable. This happens every time I try to mount the Kindle.
