Whenever a device is connected, calibre does a scan looking for content on the device.

On most types of devices this is a quick process.

Unfortunately, the first connection of an an Android device is very slow as calibre scans the ENTIRE device. All you can do is wait and let that initial scan complete, and then (VERY IMPORANT) configure calibre to ensure it only scans the locations YOU WANT in future.

This is done by clicking on the arrow besides the Device icon in the calibre menu and selecting the Configure this device. Select the Chane scanned folders button and ensure that ONLY the folder(s) that you intend to place books in has been selected. Once this has been done, click OK.

Subsequent scans of your device by calibre will be a lot LOT quicker.
