Glad most of them converted & opened.

I converted some other epubs to mobi & azw3 and had no problems with them in either format on the fire.

I re-converted Harmer John from the epub source but still the same problem - the new mobi could be seen, clicked open and consistently after a count of 5 would crash & close. But azw3 version still works with no problem.

I would have said that it's something in the source file but Blossom used it as well & had no problem with her mobi conversion.

If it's in calibre's conversion process then why would the same steps used in different epub -> mobi conversions present with differing results. Plus the fire-offending mobi file has worked fine with kindle for pc etc.

common conversion steps - output = kindle, structure detection = checks in remove first image, remove fake margins & insert metadata. mobi specific - personal document [EBOK] and nothing checked.

send to device template- default except on auto management rather than manual.

I haven't been able to recreate this with any other mobi conversions yet, so far all are working fine.

Back to yardwork.
