I'm going to have to chime in on this one. I just got my first (official) ereader- and discovered Calibre!

Unfortunately, I'm having the same problems as Pushka and rjaaa. I'm running on win7 x64- and everything except the network connection works fine. When I try to fetch metadata though, I get the same error messages that Pushka described. I've tried to connect on two separate networks, with and without the router, with windows firewall disabled, and added calibre as exception to the firewall. I've even gone so far as to uninstall and try previous versions- I've tried 6.50 through 6.53 inclusive, with no luck. If it's any help, the previous versions of calibre throw different error codes for google books- I get an 11004 error (if I remember correctly). I've registered for an ISBNDB key as well, but that doesn't work either.

Any suggestions?
