The libimobiledevice library that the plugins use have a "feature" whereby idevices can also be detected via wifi as well as usb. This means that if you have an idevice on your wifi network, it may be detected too as well as the idevice connected via usb that you are trying to get Calibre to talk to. The plugins expect to only find one idevice, and get confused, e.g. the plugins fail to initialise. This is why I have previously advised powering off all idevices apart from the one you are trying to connect Calibre to via USB.

We have now put a small fix into the libimobiledevice code so it will no longer report WIFI detected idevices, so you can keep all your idevices on. You still should only have one connected via USB to your Calibre PC. This fix should be in the next Calibre release.
