[Kindle] Saving Book Pages Help

Kurgan · 06-20-2018, 12:45 PM

something recently changed/happened with Calibre. Any AZW or AZW3 books I send to my Kindle e-reader (8th gen) won't remember which page I left off on when i switch books inside the Kindle. It typically restarts at the very first page or the last. Any possible suggestions/fixes? The Amazon digitals are fine.

As far a I know nothing has changed in calibres kIndle driver (apart from an increase in the thumbnail size) or the calibre mobi/azw3 output plugins in a very long time. Try resetting your Kindle.

Actually I did that, before this I had a 7th gen and it suddenly started doing this and so i thought the device was defective. Recently got an 8th gen, same thing. So, it's something to do with docs sent to the device. very strange. I'll try a mobi format one instead. Is there a difference between emailing your kindle and send to device in how the docs/books react inside Kindle?

yes, when you email amazon reformats the book.
