Calibre can't see my Sony prs500 *On Mac or Windows. After reading the sticky and FAQ :

1, I have run Calibre and the Sony software at the same time. Neither was able to see the device. I read in the FAQ I should delete the media.xml file using explorer but...

2, as noted in the sticky, after checking, Windows explorer doesn't show the reader as a disk when I plug it in.

I have uninstalled the Sony and Calibre Software and then reinstalled the latest version of Calibre but still no dice.

I just got a Macbook air and Calibre cant see my book there either...

Does the Sony software have to be installed in the background perhaps?

Advice?
