Permission Problems Since v1.0

[rifka]

First I love Calibre. Congrats on the new version.

I am having a permission problem ever since I installed it though. Almost every time I try to make a change that requires Calibre to move the file I get the following error:

Could not change the on disk location of this book. Is it open in another program?

Traceback (most recent call last):

No it isn't open anywhere else. The library is in the same place it has always been. Can someone explain this to me.

Thanks

I don't think the file is locked, it looks like the permissions on the target library are "out of order"

You can see which users have what permissions on the target library via Windows->Properties->Security on the target library folder - make sure the 'current' user account has full access to to the target library.

If that doesn't help could you post which version of Windows you are using and whether you are using Calibre 64 bit or 32bit

You most likely have your library on anetwork disk. Dont do that. http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq....rked-drive-nas
