Hi. Thank you for a great program. I'm gutted that it has stopped working on my tablet.
When I attach my Fire HD 8 the Job gets stuck on 'Get list of books on device' for a few minutes, and then says 'Error communicating with device'.
- I have uninstalled and reinstalled Calibre a few times
- I have tried various USB cables and ports
- I have restarted the laptop and tablet numerous times
- I have deleted the driveinfo.calibre and metadata.calibre files numerous times and restarted both etc
I have also
- Checked Preferences->Plugins->Device Interface plugin
- Tried Preferences->Miscellaneous and click debug device detection - it seemed to freeze
The problem actually started when I updated to 4.3 yesterday. But I have tried reinstalling the older version and it no longer works either.
I have also tried connecting wirelessly but that option does not work for me either.
By the way: My tablet seemed to get an update this week. Perhaps that is the reason some ppl are having issues. (See this link
