Kindle PC reader duplicate question
So - open a book from Calibre in mobi format, using the Kindle reader. First time works fine.
Second time, I get a message: File copy error. {book title} already exists in {Kindle library} In fact, the message is accurate - the first time I opened the book the Kindle PC reader copied it into its own library (creating a duplicate copy of what is already in the Calibre library.) Seems to me this behavior has changed recently. I usually use Calibre as my library manager, and would prefer to not have to first open the Kindle reader, and then find the book I want. I don't think the second open does any real harm, but it seems messy to me. suggestions??? thnx.. . |

Ahh... thanks - found and downloaded the previewer from Amazon.
Where to I tell Calibre to use it instead of the regular reader?? . |

You simply associate it as the default program for mobi in the operating system.
