Hi,

I'm trying to use calibre companion on Nexus 7 2103, and after some trouble managed to upload books using content server in calibre. I can now see books in calibre companion without any problem.

However, when I try opening books (using the Read button in top right hand corner), this only works the 1st time I try it for each book. If I try a second time (for example if I want to re-read a book) I just get the message 'Error ! This document is already on your bookshelf', and can't open the book in calibre companion.

I can find and open the same book using an e-reader (in my case Aldilo), but this defeats the purpose of my using calibre companion for its grouping/sorting/series options.

Can anyone tell me if I'm missing something here ?

thanks
