Seems that 0.5.7 on OS X is giving me a lot of problems with sending files to my PRS-700. The spinning beach ball comes up quite often and for a long time when sending files. I was sending about 10 files at a time to the PRS-700 SD card memory and then when I was going to bed decided to select the rest of the files (about 500 remaining) and send them all at once. Well, about 5 hours later when I woke up, Calibre is still showing the spinning rainbow and when I checked the card (using Finder) to see what has been sent, only about 37 books have been uploaded. It seems that Calibre has stalled so I Force Quit the programme to start again.

Sending only about 10 files at a time is rather slow as I have to babysit the computer. I have about 500 books. Is there another way?
