Hi,

I get a connection error every time I try to sync my Kindle Fire tablet with Calibre. This has been the case for over a year, and previous posts have received no attention. The error file is below. Is this time out issue going to be addressed in a future release?

calibre, version 5.8.1
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

There was a timeout while communicating with the device in function: Device did not respond in reasonable time

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
