Hi all, apologies if this is covered in another thread.
I thought I saw somewhere that there might be issues if Calibre is used along with the Sony library application and also perhaps with respect to the use of the Adobe Digital Editions library manager on a Mac.
As of right now, I have installed the Sony software on a VMWare image (I have a Mac, running Windows 7 and Windows XP on VMWare Fusion images), and it works fine - I have downloaded and installed five books.
My next step is to try ADE (preferably the Mac version, but if that is an issue, I can always use a Windows version on Fusion) - and I also recall reading of problems when authorizing your device on a Windows copy of ADE - and then following that up by trying to use a Mac version. Is this also a potential roadblock? (Sorry, I know that is not really a Calibre question - but read on, please).
And then finally (this is how this concerns Calibre), I will install and learn Calibre - which may end up as my preferred library manager - assuming I get the hang of it.
Will Calibre have any compatibility issues, given I will have already installed and loaded books from Sony's library manager and also from ADE's manager?
I will be using Sony for content from their site, will be using ADE for library books (DRM and non-DRM) and will be using Calibre to convert books from fictionwise or Books on Board which are available in mobi, but not available in lrf.
Any word on potential pitfalls would be
greatly appreciated! Thanks, -- Rique
