PaulSmi · 04-05-2010, 11:45 AM

I can see this not being a problem for most people, but as devices converge (which they are doing), Calibre would need to know when to copy stuff over, otherwise things will get into a big mess.

At the moment I am plugging in a Kindle, a Blackberry, a portable hard drive, and numerous other devices. I don't really want to be having to remember to check with Calibre to see if it just might possibly send something over to the wrong device, before I insert anything.

I only use Calibre with the Kindle and so it should ignore every other device. I would have thought it would be possible to specify that in the preferences somewhere, or at the time I scheduling. Just a thought.
