Calibre recently stopped working with my kindle. Whenever I go to send books to device I get this error code:

calibre, version 5.44.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

[Errno 5] Input/output error: '/Volumes/Kindle/documents/Weeks, Brent'

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/gui2/device.py", line 87, in run
File "calibre/gui2/device.py", line 628, in _upload_books
File "calibre/devices/usbms/driver.py", line 331, in upload_books

File "os.py", line 223, in makedirs
OSError: [Errno 5] Input/output error: '/Volumes/Kindle/documents/Weeks, Brent'

I tried updating to the newer calibre and got the same error code please help!
