Got my new Sony reader. Slapped in an SD card that had just been cleanly reformatted. Plugged into Calibre for the first time. Select a single PDF, and click "Send to SD card B".
Waiting....waiting....
Calibre job status: "Upload 1 books to device", "Working...", "Unavailable" progress, running time 13 minutes.
OK. Clearly something is wrong. It does not take this long to send this PDF file to an SD card. I've sent it before at a MUCH faster speed. The SD card is bad, maybe. Whatever. I'll swap it out and try something different.
Except I can't stop the job! When I try, I get the "Cannot kill jobs that communicate with device" error. Not once, but 4 times, which is particularly fun to click through.
Is there a reason why I can't stop a job through Calibre? I don't really want to just YANK the device because last time I did that with a non-responsive Calibre, it bricked a $60 micro SD card. That was an expensive lesson and I don't want to brick the Sony attached to this SD card that Calibre is talking to.
However, I really don't want to wait 45 minutes or however long it takes Calibre to decide to give up. WILL it decide to give up? Eventually? Maybe?
