CC doesn't see my library on Dropbox
Hello,
I'm new to CC and am trying to use the demo version before I buy the complete version. Here is my problem: my library is on Dropbox, but CC can't find it. It shows me three directories (Photos, Public and Screen shots: why these??) that don't contain any Calibre library, and completly miss my two Calibre libraries. I am probably missing something, but I don't know what... Thanks for your help, Emphyrio |

Hey!
Give this a read and confirm the library is correctly set up. https://calibrecompanion.co/how-to-dropbox-onedrive/ Thanks, Alex |

Hello Alex,
Thank you for your answer. I was trying to answer you when I realised that I'm using a wrong Dropbox account. It is actually more subtle than that : I have a Gmail account which looks like that : firstname.lastname@gmail.com. I don't know if you know that, but Gmail automaticaly creates synonyms for your email. In my case, for example, I can use firstnamelastname@gmail.com, firstname_lastname@gmail.com, etc. From the beginning I took the habit to use firstnamelastname@gmail.com when I register on a website. And I have done so for Dropbox. I also created another Dropbox account with firstname.lastname@gmail.com. Now the problem : when I use the "login with Google" option, CC logs me to the last (firstname.lastname) instead of the first (firstnamelastname)... I don't see any solution to my problem as long as the Dropbox login has not been fixed on CC... Emphyrio |

dropbox login IS now fixed in latest releases. I was one of the original complainers, and testers of CC betas
possibly, the demo version lags behind the paid for full version by a few releases. So dropbox + demo version my not be an option for you. the old CC versions do work OK with box, and you can get 10GB free from box.com if you copied your library to box and connected to that with demo version, it should work for you to test Last edited by stumped; 07-30-2020 at 04:35 AM. |
