Help! Getting Error Messages for Covers

[irishd1988]

Help!

Calibre was working fine...

But now, when I upload books (I've been uploading epubs), I'm getting Error Messages!!!

Instead of showing the book cover, I get the Brown Book placeholder
--if I then use Edit Metadata...
hi-light the book in the upper right-hand corner box,
and then click the Brown Book (Set the cover for the book from selected format)

the Cover appears in the window (bottom left corner)

if I then try to Trim the Cover, or try click OK to close,

I keep getting error messages like:

Error: Unhandled exception
Exception: Wrong jpeg library version: library is 80 caller expects 70 (then a space
and a symbol that looks a bit like a quotation mark (") but the first ' is slanted--high on left low on the right-- @ error/jpeg.c/EmitMessage/235

Show details yields:

--I get the same mesg/details if I Browse or Paste a Cover Image then try to click OK


I get these messages for "duplicate" books that I've already Successfully uploaded to my library (with no problems) previous to today--so the problem is not with the books I'm trying to upload

I had this problem a few days ago... and after trying Install Repairs several times I system restored to a point I know worked and it went back to being ok

but without thinking I updated to 8.54 today and the same problem showed up
problem is I did something to my computer ???
and have lost all restore points prior to today!!!

I tried to System Restore to both Installed calibre and Removed calibre points
but when I open Calibre it's saying it's version 8.54 (at both restore points)!!!

Please help...

And Calibre isn't recognizing my reader, either!

Gah!

I have all (3) of my libraries backed-up--I may try uninstalling Calibre then reinstalling and re-adding my libraries...

I have no idea if it'll make a difference

[kovidgoyal]

uninstall, delete c:\program files\calibre2 and then re-install. And dont worry this wont affect your book or settings.
