It is considered to by bad manners (or worse) in most forums to post the same question twice in different threads.

Calibre has an Export/Import feature under it's Library Menu. It would probably be worth exporting (backing up) your library since this process also copies your plugins and their configurations. I exported my library from my main computer, installed Calibre on my laptop and imported my library to the laptop – I was surprised when all the books, and the plugins and plugin settings came over to the new computer without any intervention on my part. So it was immediately working with my Kindle and Kobo DRM files. Then I tried it again, on the Windows partition (I mostly use Linux) and it worked when moving to a different OS as well. Calibre is a fantastic application. |

As per Posting Guideline #3. The discussion in other thread seems to be more substantive, so I'm closing this one. BR |

Since I have super powers that BetterRed doesn't, I've merged the threads, and moved the merged thread to the general calibre forum. It certainly wasn't appropriate in News, and not really relevant to calibre/devices. |

Right-click the Library Icon: Export backs up your Librarie(s) AND Settings folder into spanned zips. copy those to DVD. BTW store those DVD's in the dark, the dye can fade. The 'Offsite' point is relevant. Fire, Flood, Tornado, can remove the most diligent backup in moments. |

I've been thinking about upgrading my Calibre, but would like to know which one is the most recent 'stable' version to do so. Any recommendations? |

Is there a reason you are not on 3.x?

There is no unstable version. Just install the newest version.

With the current Alf I can convert currently
downloaded Kindle books and get into Calibre. But I don't seem to be able to do it with the older Kindle books from several years ago. Any suggestions here? Thanks |
