Personal Tag on book cover, can this be removed?

ACardAttack · 07-02-2014, 07:47 PM

I've seen mixed things on here, can this be done in Calibre anymore?

I have deleted both the personal tag, leaving it blank and have also tried giving EBOK tag.

Neither worked until I unchecked the share on facebook button in mobi output, but when I unchecked it and sent to my device (always over usb) it worked! No personal tag on cover

But when I try to open a book I get an error message about unable to open item and if bought from amazon delete and re download. Problem is I got them through project Gutenberg

Anything that can be done?

Try deleting and resending the book. Perhaps it got corrupted while sending.

I figured it out, if I have Calibre convert to old or both it works. When it converts to new in mobi output I get the error

So for anyone else having this problem

EBOK is the tag you want, have calibre covert to either old or to both. I don't think the facebook share makes a huge difference, but it may.
