Problems with Calibre go with dropbox

789456 · 09-12-2017, 05:00 AM

I have Calibre on my PC, a dropbox account, and Calibre go on Android. I moved my library to a dropbox folder, and communicated Calibre go to my dropbox account, and selected the folder. Yet no books appear there, but when I open the folder they are all there, and when I open it in my PC Calibre everything is in place. What did I miss?

Calibre Go is not part of the main calibre product, its an independent android app that claims to interoperate with calibre. You'll have to ask the Calibre Go folks for support.

You might want to consider switching to Calibre Companion. It was written and is maintained by one of the calibre developers, and there's a support forum for it at MR.

I use Calibre Box with Dropbox. It works great. I bought the app. You might want to try it.

Has Dropbox completed the sync of your computer to the cloud?
