I am a big fan of Calibre, used it for years back when I had the Sony PRS-505 device.

Now I am solely using my Sony Xperia tablet Z and would like to interact with it from Calibre. Indeed, it does happen that I directly download books from my tablet or need to send books to it.

However, I cannot correctly do that.

The device is correctly detected by Calibre and as soon as I launch / connect, it's being scanned for content. However, after 10 or so minutes, it fails.

I would like to be able, beforehand, to set the folder in which I would like my books to be stored and therefore scanned by Calibre. After it fails communicating with the device, I do not have access to the folders within my tablet in the settings.

Here's the error code I receive

Code:
calibre, version 2.31.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

Failed to upload file named: driveinfo.calibre to (u'Internal Storage',): 2:PTP Layer error 2002: send_file_object_info(): Could not send object info.

Change your tablet to MTU usb mode. You will have to find the set usb mode for the sony yourself.
