Transfer mobi to Kindle will not open.

Have books in mobi format added to Calibre and can read with Calibre viewer. Transfer to Kindle and will not open in the Kindle. If I use the Kindle as a device in Calibre I can read the book in Calibre viewer.

Any suggestions?

Have you tried converting from mobi to mobi in Calibre and then retransferring your book? That might get rid of some formatting issues that is causing your Kindle to not like your file.

Do the books show up on the Kindle? What error message do you get when you try to open them?
