It's a short story, and even though I can view it fine with Calibre's book viewer, when I try and view it on my Sony 505 it just shows one page with an error. I've downloaded it several times and still get the same problem. If I use Calibre to change the format to LRF then it's fine. But I'd prefer to be able to read the original epub I downloaded.
It's happened to one other book I've downloaded, "Blindsight" by Peter Watts. Everything else seems fine... so it must be something special about the epub format of those two books in particular. Any ideas?

The only way I have found to solve the problem is as I mentioned in my edit. To 'open' the book first in either Digital Editions for epub or Sony for LRF and then go through a few pages. After that I attach my ebook and then transfer the book. After doing that I have no problem opening the book in the ebook. I then transfer the book into Calibre the usual way, so that I have it in Calibre.
Hope this makes sense and helps. I haven't found any other way yet, though usually there are no problems.
