I have three laptops all running calibre, two are windows, 10 and 7, and one is a Mac on Sierra, my library is in dropbox.

On the android Calibre Companion I can use any laptop to send books to the app from Calibre, the CC app on my android device works with all three, but on the IOS CC it appears that I can only use the laptop I initaily set up the sync from Calibre. That seems to be at least one reason why I get the "ControlError: Device responded with incorrect information" message.

Does that sound right for the IOS app? And should it work differently to the android app for syncing?
