2020 Kindle Fire not loading in Calibre

Detected in computer and shows as a media device, but no drive or storage to load manually and doesn't appear in Calibre like my older kindle fire. Any idea what would solve the problem? I have checked the thread posted about older Kindle Fire and could find no solution there or from searching the internet.

I believe there is an option on the Fire itself that you have to enable...it has to do with configuring the device for USB data transfer. If I remember correctly, you have to do this each time you want to connect.

Look in the Settings area on the Fire.

That is correct, unless they changed it for 2020 model. Swipe down from top of device when connected.
