Hello:
I was just 'forced' to install the new Version 5 (because the data base in my Clara wasn't compatible with Version 4!) and now I find, when I turn Calibre on, a "Folder Device" connected. I can't find anything in the manual about it so I thought I would see if I can learn about it! Thanks in advance! Sparky |

Automatic connection to folder devices happens if you have set a tweak for it in Preferences->Tweaks.

Thanks Kovid: I guess the terminology must have changed. I thought what I was doing was specifying the library which Calibre selected when it opened! The fact that Calibre considers the library as a device is new to me! I will think about how I can make use of this feature!
Thanks for everything you do to keep Calibre going! |

Yes, there IS a warning there that it might cause database corruption, but trust me, if that was the case there would have been warnings throughout these forums about the incompatibility. |
