Thanks for the info about the site. I went to the site to see if it was working and it was, but I guess that doesn't tell me it's not working in Calibre. As far as the books just running, its happened to me in bulk and with just one book converting. It seems to happen when I'm multitasking. If I start a conversion and then either add another book and edit meta or if I open a browser and then go back to Calibre. It's almost like it gets a hiccup in the conversion and it doesn't error out, it just spins the hour glass. I've left a couple on for a good half hour just to see if it would finish. It never finished and never error'ed. I clicked the hour glass to kill the process, but as we know, that doesn't work for me anymore

So I close Calibre, reopen it and restart the conversion. In most cases it completes the book in seconds to minutes. Lastly, any idea when the fetch site will be back up and is there a way for me to see that its down. Thanks for the great tool. Oh, and I hope you got my pittance of a donation. When I get a few bucks, I'll send another so you can get a cup of joe
