Question

tym · 03-12-2022, 06:07 PM

I HOPE I did not post this in the wrong spot. If I did so sorry and please point me to the right area Please and Thank you.

When I open The calibre ebook reader program, it takes me to a page for me to select book. What I wanna do is When I open Calibre Ebook Reader it takes me Right to the book I was reading.

Is this possible, If so what am I missing.......my guess if I am missing something its pretty simple. Thank you.

I moved your post to Viewer.

If you open the Viewer using the small arrow on the Icon (or right click the Icon), it show the last 5 books opened. the top is the Last. click it and it will take you to the book. For some reason, it does not take you even close to the last place you were at).

How are you opening the viewer?

So I guess you just cant open the viewer and it will go strait to the book you were reading already, am I understanding you right??

To open the viewer, I just found the calibre in my C/Programs......found the ebook viewer then created a short cut to my desktop.

In your shortcut add the --continue option to the command line

Mine does. Check your settings. When you open up the ebook reader, right click, go to preferences, then Misalaneous, Then check the boxes needed to save your progress.

Been using it for 10Y and I missed that setting (I might have thought is put a placemark in the book : unwanted)
