This "secure catalog" thing almost has me licked! (Trying to use Calibre to connect my 3.0 Touch to a Mac.)

I tried connect both to Calibre and to Stanza Desktop. Always got the "secure catalog" screen. Tried every possible ID and password to no avail. Eventually I turned off the system firewall on the Mac (Leopard), and got this result:

The "shared books" menu item brings up a screen with two items. One leads to Stanza Desktop, which works properly now. The other item says "Books in Calibre," but when I select that, I get the same "secure catalog" runaround. I can also select the "online catalog" menu which has the Calibre item I added using instructions earlier in this thread, but selecting this still brings up the "shared books" thing.

I assume the problem is not in my router, since the Touch sees the "Books in Calibre." But I can't figure why it connects to Stanza Desktop but not to Calibre. If I have to, I can use Stanza Desktop, but Calibre does so much more, IF I can make it work.

I know this is a tired old thread, but if anyone has any new ideas, I would ba very grateful!
