Since this seems to be the place to ask for calibre - kindle problems, a quick question: can it be that the new Kindle firmware (5.11) and the calibre version 1.47 is not compatible?

I have a Kindle Voyage (firmware 5.8.7.01.) which works fine with this calibre version and got a New Kindle Paperwhite yesterday with the newest firmware which calibre does not recognise.
It is detected as usb device by windows though.

I read the thread with first steps but I can not upgrade calibre or windows.

As far as I understand it I can either return the Kindle, downgrade the firmware (and not being able to return the device) or get a new OS (and PC).

I just wanted to ask if you know of other cases which would confirm the "suspect" aka firmware.
