Calibre, Win 64 bit, News not auto downloading

LibertyToad · 12-07-2011, 08:56 PM

Hi,

Does anyone have a copy of Calibre running on Windows 7 64 bit that properly, automatically downloads news sources. (It worked fine on Windows 7 32 bit).

I know how to set up the news sources and I have them scheduled to download but they never do. They do download and convert manually fine (when I force them to download). Any ideas? They don't seem to be triggered when scheduled.

Thanks.

Is the machine hibernating (USER after inactivity)? If so, is a password required after it wakes?

Thank you for your reply.

I have it set to not hibernate, but it does require a password after the screen saver goes on. My guess is that it should still work correctly since it really isn't hibernating, correct?

I was having the news set to my kindle via the kindle email address and gmail. I turned that off and it now seems to be working. Odd.

I set my screensaver to NOT require a password (My computer is safe in MY home office)
