Calibre 6.13
Kindle Paperwhite 7th Generation

Linux Mint 21.1 Vera
Cinnamon 5.6.6 Desktop
Intel© Core™ i7-8700K CPU @ 3.70GHz × 6
Graphics Card: NVIDIA Corporation GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050]
Mother board: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. PRIME Z370-P Rev X.0x

Hello,

All of my "send to device" destinations are greyed out when I right click on a book in Calibre.

I do not have a "Send To Device" button on my toolbar at the top of Calibre.

In

Preferences > Interface > Toolbars & Menus > The Main Toolbar When The Device Is Connected

I have the "send to device" and "location manager" buttons listed in the right side column under current actions.

Linux automounts my Kindle just fine. I see the contents in the "documents" folder. When I attempt to copy an ebook ( confirmed non-drm ) I get told that the device is read only by my OS.

I would appreciate any clues for getting a "Send To Device" button to be appear and be active.

Thanks much for any help.
