Thanks for your help and please forgive my english (I'm italian).

I added some extra logging in the Kindle routines in the last version. I've fixed it in the attached version. Could you try it and see how it goes?

Now it works, thanks!
There's a way to import the notes without timestamp or location? Only the text of the notes?
Thanks.

Good. The new version has been posted.

Yes and no. You can't completely get rid of it, but you can change styles for the annotations. Adding "display:none" in for the timestamp will hide them. Unfortunately, this also hides the divider between the annotations. Selecting the "add horizontal line" option will put a line between them.

Dear David,

Thank you so much for this wonderful plugin and the ongoing support you are providing. Having encountered the problem of not being able to store the annotations I made on my Kindle within the mobi-file itself, the Annotations plugin saved quite a bit of work.

Now it has stopped working though. I am not sure what I did – it may have to do with the process of migrating my ebook library into Dropbox, but I am not sure. What happens is this:

I have matched the books on my Kindle with the appropriate books in my library. When I mount the Kindle and click on the Annotations button, I get as far as the list of books with annotations on the Kindle, and I can even preview the annotations thereon. I just realised the matching status is shown as red. So perhaps the "match book to library" process did not work? But it worked before! I am quite frustrated.

Can you help, please?

This is the debug log:

In the previous thread, there was talk about how the Kobo annotation system is based off of the ADE annotation system. I would love to be able to use this plugin with some sort of reading app on Android, and it looks like Mantano annotations use ADE (though only through the mantano database, not through an external file) - is there any chance that the work you've done for Kobo might translate to ADE?

Thanks!

If I read this and the other thread correctly, when the Kindle is connected, calibre is not showing the books that are on the device as in the library. Is that correct? If so, that needs to be solved before the annotations plugin will work.

Kobo devices use the RMSDK to read epubs and PDF. It generates the positions for the reading position and annotations. On the device, the annotations can be stored in two places. The database and an annotations file. The annotations file is only used for epubs and PDFs that are in the main memory. This is the same format as ADE uses. I have pulled the file from the device and gotten ADE on the PC to use it. This took a little fiddling as there are some ids in the file that must match the book being read.

If you want to look at the annotations file, they are in "Digitial Editions/Annotations". Within that, the directory and file structure mirrors where the books are on the device. The file name is the same as the book with the extension "annot" added.

The database could be used for this as the positions are stored in the same way. But, someone would need to write the code to generate the annotations file. It shouldn't be that hard to do, but I haven't seen the point as yet.

David, thanks again for your help. I have no idea why communication between Kindle and Calibre stopped working properly. Kindle did an update recently though. So should I post this in another section of this forum? Thanks again, kind regards, Christian

davidfor · 08-18-2014, 07:08 AM

You could ask in the Kindle forum, but if your other posts here don't get an answer, I don't know if you would elsewhere. I just noticed in the other posts you are using a Mac. Something to check is that the Mac has write access to the device. There has been problems with the Kobo devices when for some reason a Mac mounted the device read-only. Fixing that, made it work again.

turelur · 08-18-2014, 04:03 PM

Please bear with me for just one attempt more at solving this. I have matched the books with my library. It didn't seem to have worked at first, but when I restarted Calibre, all the books on the Kindle were displayed with the correct covers. So it seems to have done the matching after all. Then I tried to fetch annotations from Kindle via the plugin. The list of books on the device with annotations was yellow this time. And when I clicked on Import, there was an error message. This is what the debug log says:

If the library has a tick next to the books that are on the device, then it has worked.

Nope. No success.

This is what the plugin alert says:

Any idea what's happening here?

davidfor · 08-22-2014, 12:48 AM

I haven't been able to reproduce this and I just realised why. For the Kobo devices, the import doesn't need to prompt to check the annotations are being applied to the correct book. It is needed for the Kindle.

I was able to force it through this code and it was obvious what the problem was. Please try the attached version.
