Calibre cancel news subscriptions

Bro Pete · 03-05-2011, 07:39 PM

I want to cancel my Calibre subscription to a newspaper but I can't find where to do that. What simple thing did I miss?

Click on the little arrow next to Fetch News. Click Scheduled. Your ALREADY SCHEDULED should be at the top. Expand and then click the item you want to alter and alter the values

I cannot find a way to change the frequency of a schedule for a magazine or newspaper. Clicking on "Fetch News does not give me the option.

Click the little arrow to the right of Fetch News and select Schedule news download.

To add just a bit more:

If you click either the main FetchNews or the little arrow to its right, a list opens. At the top of the list (at least, that's what I see) is

"scheduled (x)" where x are the number already scheduled.

If you click the little pointer to the left of that, it opens a list of your Scheduled items. Select one of those and you should be able to edit frequency, etc or cancel.

When I select the little arrow to the right of "Fetch News" I do not get scheduled. I get "Schedule news download and Add a custom news source and download all scheduled new sources. FF@ I don't get any indication that I have a scheduled news source, but once a day, if I open Calibre, it downloads the New York Times.

Did you click on Schedule news download as I suggested? Once you do FF2's post will make more sense.

Just click on the news button. That should open up a dialog with all available sources. In the left pane, your scheduled news items should be on the top in green.

That was a good explanation. Now I can adjust the schedule. Thanks.
