When I go to transfer books in Calibre to my Kindle it has a pop-up that says: error communicating with device, this is the error codes I get. Am I doing something wrong?
(21, 'GetDiskFreeSpace', 'The device is not ready.')

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 82, in run
