Hi all,
Thanks in advance for your help. I had an Kindle DX that was working well with Calibre. I just got a Sony PRS300 and Calibre says no devise attached. The Sony program works ok and is able to load books. I downloaded the new 7.7 version, and reran preference to set it for the Sony instead of the Kindle. I've tried every variation I can think of: Open Calibe first, then attaching the Sony; attaching the Sony, then opening Calibre; Turning the Sony off before attaching the USB cable, etc. With everything Calibre does not see the Sony.
I did register the devise with Sony, and downloaded a book from them and it synced up ok. I've tried all the options with the Sony program both open and closed, but I just can't get Calibre to see the Sony....
Any suggestion? Thanks!
Bill
