How to stop ignoring a device

warekl · 11-14-2015, 10:51 PM

I had initially set up my 64 bit 2.44.0 version of Calibre to ignore my Nook. Now, no matter what I do, including uninstall/install I can't change that setting. I uncheck the box in preferences and it just rechecks itself... Bug?

I cannot replicate that. But you can always reset the config by deleting the file mtp_devices.json in the calibre config directory (preferences->miscellaneous->open config directory)

Then the next time you conenct your device calibre will ask if you want it managed.
