Is there any known issues with the newest version of the Sony software and Calibre? I'm having problems with Calibre not recognizing my Sony PRS600 also. I just updated the Sony software a few days ago. Everything was working fine before then. When Calibre wouldn't recognize my reader today, I tried updated Calibre (from 6.49 to 6.55 [or whatever the newest issue is]). It's still not recognizing it.

Whenever I plug in my reader using the USB cord, I get some kind of Windows installation error message, as if plugging in the reader is activating a software installation. It doesn't seem like it's a Calibre problem, but rather a Sony or USB cord problem. The reader battery also drained while using the USB cord for a few minutes.

I'll try doing a restart, maybe try uninstalling Sony if that doesn't work.
