Immediately signed right back on program and got the same error codes and it wouldn't let me do anything. I guess the only thing left to do is wipe calibre program from desktop and restore library from an older back-up and reverse load a couple of books that I know are not on the back-up. I just wish I knew where problem is originating...a book corruption or program problem..
Why do you think this will help? The issue here is probably a network issue. You are connecting to a device on the network that is running Calibre Companion. Have you checked firewalls? Can the device connect to the computer in other ways? Such as using the browser to connect to calibre server? Turn that on and try. Or check if the device can see the computer in other ways. Or the computer can see the device. Depending what is running on the device, it might show up in the network. Pinging the devices IP is always a good test.

I do not use Calibre Companion, so beyond basic network checks, I don't know what else to suggest. Hopefully an expert will come along. But, you definitely should have been mentioned this in the first post. Or the subject of the post.
