Help with Voyage!
I bought my Voyage about a month ago and I still can't figure out two things. If I sideload using Calibre, no problem, it shows up in Downloaded Books. If I just drag it over into the folder, it only seems to have a 50% chance of showing up in my book library on the Voyage. In addition, the search only searches the online bookstore. It won't search my library on my unit, not even the one on the cloud. Is there a setting that I am missing?

Did you do the recent update? I'm not sure about the sideloading question, but when I do a search from the home page, I get 5 rows of results. The first row is "My Items", the second is "Kindle Store", the third is "Goodreads", the fourth is "Text in Books" and the last is "Dictionary and Wikipedia".

What do you see when you do a search?

The most common reason for a book not showing up in a search is that it hasn't been indexed. Forgive me for sounding like a broken record, given that I seem to be asking this same question almost every day, but have you checked to make sure that nothing's got stuck indexing?

Delete the books that are stuck, and reload them.

In my experience just delete the offending book and re-add it. If it keeps happening there is likely something in the file causing problems, in that case a re-conversion (Mobi to Mobi, AZW3 to AZW3 etc) might help.
