hi theducks

sorry have I upset you in some way? Your answers are very rude and not helpful for the issue.

I understand that Amazon have a walled garden, just like Google and Nook and Kobo etc.

I am not a programmer so I don't know how Calibre is written I can only go on Kovids response and ask the question.

From Kovids response it seemed that Calibre blocks these folders by default, no matter what people select, due to the many files, causing a slow down.

If this is the case then surely a code change can allow you to set an ignored folder with an exception or the code could be removed with calibre leaving the box unticked in device setup so that when people select it they get a warning about slow scan speed but it will work.

All I am saying is that as this is the default save location that you cannot change because Amazon have hard coded it in, then surely Calibre can help users?

I am sure the 2 of us with the problem in this thread are not alone but many people know about calibre but not about this forum.

thanks
