Calibre update problem.

wecljaw · 06-19-2016, 07:32 AM

New to forum, but been using Calibre for years.

Tried to upgrade to latest recommended version of Calibre.
Using Latest Windows.
Result I have message saying "Python function terminated unexpectedly, failed to load
Image majick. No module named majik."
I can't open Calibre. Don't want to lose my library.
I am a wonderful user of calibre, but lines of code would flatten me.

Does this mean I have lost my library..?

Can some kind person help me out of this black hole that i am in.

Thanks Wecljaw

PS because of the latest Android update i have lost the use of a newish Samsung TAB T810whick I used as my epub ereader. I dont think there is any overcoming that after i blissfully upgraded.

That looks like a corrupted install. Just uninstall calibre, delete c:\Program DFiles\Calibre2 and re-install. Doing so does not affect your calibre library/settings.

Thanks for your fast reply. You are truly fantastic, and so is your program.
