When a new issue is available, and downloads automatically, the cover appears normally under "newsstand" but the dreaded gray cover displays on the carousel. Then something really strange occurs. 48 hours after the new issue appears, with no intervention from me, the cover suddenly appears normally on the carousel and all is well. A very strange bug indeed. This has occurred for the last two issues following the 6.3.0 update. It will be interesting to see if the problem continues.
That happens with mine, too! I thought I was going crazy! I had a huge problem with covers (as well as files not opening properly on the KF that opened & read perfectly normal on my KB) all the way up to last night. Then, today *poof*, everything is back to normal, WITH NO ACTION FROM ME! This is crazy! A file I read yesterday morning wouldn't open last night and had a grey cover. THE SAME FILE (untouched since my last futile attempt to open last night) displayed and read correctly this afternoon!

I'm sure if I had 2000 books and a whole bunch were "alternative" books with messed up covers, I'd care. But I am curious as to why it happens.
Ditto. Since I'm one of those that has close to 2,000 books, I need to know what has caused this problem and how to correct it in the future.
