Problems downloading metadata from Amazon (5.7.2 & 4.23.0, Win 10 64-bit)

[timnz]

Hey everybody

I hope someone can help me. I've recently been unable to download Amazon metadata on any books at all. It shows no results, even for very popular books. For example, this is the log for a 2018 bestseller:

I could almost always load metadata from Amazon before. If it didn't work, I'd add the Amazon ID manually in the metadata and that would sort it out. But that doesn't work now either:

Interesting. I added an empty ebook with the title and author and downloaded the metadata individually. My main metadata sources are Kobo and Amazon. Amazon gave the same results whether the country was configured to Canada or US and the server to get data from to Amazon servers. See attached image. I did notice the ISBN returned by my search was the one from the Kobo search and did not match the one you showed though both seem to match editions of the book.

**INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
\nA NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF 2018
\nONE OF THE ECONOMIST\'S BOOKS OF THE YEAR
\n
"My new favorite book of all time." --Bill Gates
\n
If you think the world is coming to an end, think again: people are living longer, healthier, freer, and happier lives, and while our problems are formidable, the solutions lie in the Enlightenment ideal of using reason and science.**
\n
Is the world really falling apart? Is the ideal of progress obsolete? In this elegant assessment of the human condition in the third millennium, cognitive scientist and public intellectual Steven Pinker urges us to step back from the gory headlines and prophecies of doom, which play to our psychological biases. Instead, follow the data: In seventy-five jaw-dropping graphs, Pinker shows that life, health, prosperity, safety, peace, knowledge, and happiness are on the rise, not just in the West, but worldwide. This progress is not the result of some cosmic force. It is a gift of the Enlightenment: the conviction that reason and science can enhance human flourishing.
\n
Far from being a naïve hope, the Enlightenment, we now know, has worked. But more than ever, it needs a vigorous defense. The Enlightenment project swims against currents of human nature--tribalism, authoritarianism, demonization, magical thinking--which demagogues are all too willing to exploit. Many commentators, committed to political, religious, or romantic ideologies, fight a rearguard action against it. The result is a corrosive fatalism and a willingness to wreck the precious institutions of liberal democracy and global cooperation.
\n
With intellectual depth and literary flair, Enlightenment Now makes the case for reason, science, and humanism: the ideals we need to confront our problems and continue our progress.

\'My new favourite book of all time\' Bill Gates
\n**TOP TEN SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
\n
Is modernity really failing? Or have we failed to appreciate progress and the ideals that** make it possible?
\n
If you follow the headlines, the world in the 21st century appears to be sinking into chaos, hatred, and irrationality. Yet Steven Pinker shows that this is an illusion - a symptom of historical amnesia and statistical fallacies. If you follow the trendlines rather than the headlines, you discover that our lives have become longer, healthier, safer, happier, more peaceful, more stimulating and more prosperous - not just in the West, but worldwide. Such progress is no accident: it\'s the gift of a coherent and inspiring value system that many of us embrace without even realizing it. These are the values of the Enlightenment: of reason, science, humanism and progress.
\n
The challenges we face today are formidable, including inequality, climate change, Artificial Intelligence and nuclear weapons. But the way to deal with them is not to sink into despair or try to lurch back to a mythical idyllic past; it\'s to treat them as problems we can solve, as we have solved other problems in the past. In making the case for an Enlightenment newly recharged for the 21st century, Pinker shows how we can use our faculties of reason and sympathy to solve the problems that inevitably come with being products of evolution in an indifferent universe. We will never have a perfect world, but - defying the chorus of fatalism and reaction - we can continue to make it a better one.

Or have we failed to appreciate progress and the ideals that** <strong>make it possible?</strong></p>\n<p>If you follow the headlines, the world in the 21st century appears to be sinking into chaos, hatred, and irrationality. Yet Steven Pinker shows that this is an illusion - a symptom of historical amnesia and statistical fallacies. If you follow the trendlines rather than the headlines, you discover that our lives have become longer, healthier, safer, happier, more peaceful, more stimulating and more prosperous - not just in the West, but worldwide. Such progress is no accident: it\'s the gift of a coherent and inspiring value system that many of us embrace without even realizing it. These are the values of the Enlightenment: of reason, science, humanism and progress.</p>\n<p>The challenges we face today are formidable, including inequality, climate change, Artificial Intelligence and nuclear weapons. But the way to deal with them is not to sink into despair or try to lurch back to a mythical idyllic past; it\'s to treat them as problems we can solve, as we have solved other problems in the past. In making the case for an Enlightenment newly recharged for the 21st century, Pinker shows how we can use our faculties of reason and sympathy to solve the problems that inevitably come with being products of evolution in an indifferent universe. We will never have a perfect world, but - defying the chorus of fatalism and reaction - we can continue to make it a better one.</p>\n</div> \r\n    '

By the way, I didn't realise a Kobo metadata plugin existed until your comment, thanks a lot!

[DNSB]

One thing I did notice is that you seem to be using the Choose server automatically option for the Amazon servers. What happens if you change that to Amazon servers?

Edit: Kovid Goyal posted in another thread:
