Kindle / Mac - Error communicating with device
The first time I connected the Kindle, I believe there was a message in Calibre asking if I wanted to allow the connection to the Kindle. I accidentally clicked "No" on that message (or something similar). Now, when I connect the Kindle, I get the "Error communicating with device" message.
Is there a way to reset this? I have tried resetting the Kindle to factory settings. Error details: calibre, version 5.9.0 ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device Failed to access files in the main memory of your device. You should contact the device manufacturer for support. Common fixes are: try a different USB cable/USB port on your computer. If you device has a "Reset to factory defaults" type of setting somewhere, use it. Underlying error: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/Volumes/Kindle/driveinfo.calibre' Traceback (most recent call last): File "calibre/devices/usbms/driver.py", line 153, in get_device_information File "calibre/devices/usbms/driver.py", line 143, in _update_driveinfo_file PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/Volumes/Kindle/driveinfo.calibre' During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "calibre/gui2/device.py", line 89, in run File "calibre/gui2/device.py", line 472, in _get_device_information File "calibre/devices/usbms/driver.py", line 155, in get_device_information OSError: Failed to access files in the main memory of your device.
