Calibre Portable

irwan_su · 08-17-2011, 12:50 AM

Hello,

I just downloaded calibre portable and put it in my external harddisk with my ebooks collection, since I expect that I can reduce limited internal hardisk usage in my notebook, but when I tried to open it, calibre portable cannot read my ebook library. I use hp notebook with vista OS. Need help to solve this problem.

Regards,

Two questions.

Is this a calibre ebook library or a directory of books not yet added to calibre?
If it is an existing calibre library, did you move it to the Calibre Portable\Calibre Library\ folder?

I have solve the problem by moving my ebook to calibre library, and I can access it when I use my laptop with Vista OS, but fail to access when I try to use it on another computer with Windows 7 OS. The following message:
"Phyton function terminated unexpectedly (5, 'CreateFile', 'Access is denied) (Error Code 1)"
I Keep my ebooks in WD Passport.

This is again saying you don't have full access to the harddisk on that computer

Problem solved as per Mr Kovid advice. It was caused by read only settingon my HD.
