Loading MOBI to Opus & Sony....
I have a conversion problem I think...

I have latest Calibre version, plus Tools 4.8 from another place, which are cleansing excellently .

However, I cannot get two books onto either an Opus or a T1.
Each time, the "jobs" gets stuck on 67%, and when I give up and cancel, tells me it is unable to load due to no available format.
Both books, looking on book details, are MOBI.

Both come from the same supplier, and, umm.... arrived in my K4PC.

[ Other books from the same source, but not MOBI, have transferred OK. ]

Can any one help please.

(My tech skills and knowledge of terminology are.... patchy, so please don't hesitate to treat me like a 5 year-old .

Can you view the mobi in the Calibre viewer?

Are you sure the DRM is stripped?

If that was Calibre Viewer, you just checked that it had no DRM

It's not stuck, it is converting the book to the proper format before transferring the book. Either let it run to completion or convert it to ePub prior to transfer. Either way don't let the job progress bar fool you into thinking it is stuck. If it doesn't error then it is still running.

Interesting - I thought that to myself, but felt I'd better not expose meself to more public scorn than necessary !

Right, dwanthny, I'll try curbing my impatience and go and have a pie or summat !
