I don't know why it started doing this. But I can't change it. I've even eliminated my email address from the list of recipients but when I re-enter it it comes back with MOBI, EPUB without me entering that preference.My question: How can I stop Calibre from automatically entering MOBI as my format preference? I can't read MOBI on my device.

Thank you.
If you don't provide all the details, don't complain about the help you did get.

From time to random time a configuration files manage to get corrupted .

USE care (Calibr not running)
Open the configuration folder: Find the file with your DeviceDriverName

Example:
Code:
device_drivers_HANLINV5.py
is the one for my Astak (HanlinV5 based)

Rename the file ...py.BAK
Start Calibre, connect the device and reconfigure your device settings.

That should give you a fresh start


By any chance are you using the PLUGBOARD with your device?
