You mean this one?:

My device is not detected by calibre
Follow these steps to find the problem:

Make sure that you are connecting only a single device to your computer at a time. Do not have another calibre supported device like an iPhone/iPad etc. at the same time.
Make sure you are running the latest version of calibre. The latest version can always be downloaded from the calibre website
Ensure your operating system is seeing the device. That is, the device should be mounted as a disk that you can access using Windows explorer or whatever the file management program on your computer is.
In calibre, go to Preferences->Ignored Devices and check that your device is not being ignored
In calibre, go to Preferences->Plugins->Device Interface plugin and make sure the plugin for your device is enabled, the plugin icon next to it should be green when it is enabled.
If all the above steps fail, go to Preferences->Miscellaneous and click debug device detection with your device attached and post the output in this forum

That as near as I can tell doesn't say anything about having to SET a preference so the device can now transfer files? Which I've NEVER HAD TO DO BEFORE.

In any case, after wasting a stupid amount of time rummaging around in other posts I FINALLY found enough of an explanation about what gyrations were necessary to set the thing to MTP and the PC now sees the tablet...
