Error trying to open e-book in iBooks on ipad2: Cannot Open "[book]" It is formatted incorrectly, or is not a format that iBooks can open.

I have been successfully creating new ebooks using InDesign in conjunction with Calibre.

I had been using Calibre for Mac and was successfully creating, editing and sending my book to iTunes and opening on my iPad.

However, my Mac died and now I am trying the same process using Calibre for Windows. While I don't know if that is the problem, it's the main equation that is different than my previous successful efforts.

Any idea what might be causing this error? I've mostly read that it has to do with DRM, but these are new eBooks and should not have any DRM issues.
