I am not sure if you giving up is final. If so, and that would be understandable, ignore the rest of this post.
Lets start with getting CC to connect to calibre. To do that:
- Uninstall CC.
- Reinstall CC. Change no CC settings.
- On the machine running calibre: stop and restart calibre.
- Make sure that the wireless device driver is running in calibre by clicking the Connect/Share icon. You should see something like the following. The IP address(es) will be different.
- Using CC, attempt to connect as a wireless device.
If connecting works then we can deal with moving your library to the SD card. Or perhaps you don't really need to do that.
If connecting doesn't work, then we need to determine why.
Did you update calibre since the last time you connected? If so, then make sure that you are running the latest calibre release and try again. If it still fails, please send me a CC debug log and a calibre debug log.
To send a calibre debug log, follow the instructions in the FAQ answer "
How do I get help?". Be sure to use CC to attempt to connect as wireless device after you restart calibre and before you close it. Email the debug log to me at calibre_debug_logs [at] charles [dot] haleys [dot] org. (Make the substitutions.)
After you have sent the calibre debug log, please send a CC debug log. You do this by going to CC's settings, scrolling to the end, and choosing "Send a debug log to multipie." You will see two email addresses, one to "multipie[dot] co[dot] uk" and one to "charles [dot] haleys [dot] org". Please erase the multipie one. As you are already talking to me there is no reason to bring my son into the story.
Given that connecting used to work and now doesn't (assuming the above didn't work), then something has changed on your network. If you are running windows, perhaps you changed from 32-bit calibre to 64-bit calibre? If so then you will need to let the new version of calibre through your firewall. Perhaps you changed your wifi/home network router? If so then there could be a lot of reasons that CC can no longer connect. But further speculation isn't really useful at this point.
