It would probably need to be compbined with some way of indicating what books from one's library one WANTS to be on the device. I suspect many people have more books than they can or want to store on their device.

Hi, I just downloaded calibre 0.6.6 for my Mac (Mac OS X 10.4.11, G3 iBook). The software hangs on the opening welcome wizard when it asks for the location of my ebooks i.e. I choose a folder, and the "Go Back" and "Continue" buttons remain greyed out. Any ideas?

This is what I found from when I installed it yesterday, and tried running it again this morning:

Just installed 0.6.6 under Ubuntu 9.04 x86-64 & noticed that the progress & runtime of recipe fetching is no longer displayed. Just the recipe "title" and the gear, check, or X icon.

[EDIT=WTH?!]
NM, just went back and looked again and all the usual fields were back and displaying...

WTH?! They weren't there a minute ago...
[/EDIT]

I could see it as a "check the box" for each ebook.

Probably the best way to effect this would be to combine the views of the ebook library on the computer and the library on the reading device-- that way, when the user is viewing the list of books on the library there would be some indication with respect to each ebook of whether that ebook is or is not on the reading device (a green (+) contrasted with a red (-), for example). Next to that indicator for each ebook, there would be a checkbox where the user could indicate whether or not he wants that ebook to be on the reading device.

Thus, if the ebook is in the library but not on the device and the user wants the ebook to be copied to the device, the user checks the box.

If the ebook is in the library and on the device, then the checkbox is already shown as checked, and the user can uncheck the box to remove the ebook from the device. (If the box is checked and the user doesn't change that, then naturally the book would not be re-copied to the device.)

If the ebook is on the device but not in the desktop computer's library, then perhaps there can be an option to copy the ebook from the device back to the computer's library.

I have a SmartQ 7 and a Nokia N800. Calibre 6 doesn't recognize either -- there is no Device Interface Plugin for these standard Linux devices. Of course, once the device is mounted, files can be saved wherever one wishes -- but it doesn't save just one kind of file, but a whole bunch of different formats. Why not implement a way of saving just the chosen output format when you save to disk? Thanks. George

Click the Down arrow next to (to the right) of save to disk. You can either save as your preferred format or select the format you would like to save as.

OK try the following:

delete (if it exists) the folder /Users/ctkierst/Library/Preferences/calibre

and then try to run calibre
