Note:
I nearly always have my devices in "list view" so I would not have noticed.
"list view" might be the best solution for the O.P.'s problem, since everything else still works.
Sorry for the delay in responding, work always gets in the way. And I realize this might not be the right forum so I can take this somewhere else if you want. I was looking for an answer about updating (hence this forum) so having received that answer I can take it outside of this post.

This happened around the first of July. I added a book on July 5th with no issues and then added a book on July 9th and that is when the issue started. Only thing I can think of was an update to Calibre but no one else in Calibre seems to have this issue. I do the same thing with every book, add to Calibre, convert to mobi, add a book cover I like set to a certain size and then add by USB to kindle.

As to what do I have installed, I am not sure what kTerm is or USB networking so I would imagine that I don't. I am not sure about the rescue pack. I remember reading one of your posts about it and then looking more into it but I don't remember if I actually installed it. I would have thought I did because I have been conscious of not updating beyond where I am at and if I had the rescue installed, it would help if I accidentally reset the device.

Is this something I can install twice?

I could also reinstall Calibre to see if the update caused the issue (although I have updated a couple of times since and still have the problem).

I have been on this update for sometime now (probably since it was pushed out by Amazon). I have since added the folder to keep it from updating. The kindle is not in list view as I can see all of the other covers to books.

So maybe it was a book that has caused this issue? It seems like you are saying I should remove all books and then add them back (one at a time) to see if that will fix it. I will think more on this, as I would be even more annoyed if it doesn't fix it but removes covers for all the books.

If you can think of anything else I can try, let me know. Thanks for the help, I have been amazed by your willingness to answer a lot of questions over the years while keeping it cool.
