Calibre to Aldiko
Up until the Version 3 update, I was able to get books from my Calibre Library into the Aldiko reader app without a problem using my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. Now that unfortunately I updated Calibre to the new version, books won't download to the reader app. My Calibre Library shows up, I can click on read and that seems fine, but when I click on download the button highlights, but the book doesn't download. What can I do so I can get my books into Aldiko. I've tried getting the old version of Calibre back on my computer, but that doesn't work either.

@LUanne - on Windows at least, before you install an older version you need to uninstall the current version via the control panel, you won't lose your libraries or configuration - but a backup never hurts, see How do I backup calibre?
Sorry, I can't with your Alkdiko issue, the name is as much as I know BR |

I figured it out. Not easy or obvious, but when you click enough buttons, you finally hit one that does the job.

My PC is running Windows 8.1. I assume content server like I've been doing for years wirelessly to my 2 tablets. My library comes up on my android tablets, but when I click on download, nothing happens. This happened in July after a Calibre update, then after the next update, everything was fine. Now with the latest update, it's happening again.

GBM, thank you so much. I added the /mobile to my catalog in Aldiko and I was able to download my books from Calibre. I never would have figured that one out. I even wrote to Aldiko and they don't bother to answer.

Calibre to Aldiko
Here it is 9 1/2 years later and the same problem. Books won't download to any of my devices. I keep getting unknown title, then download incomplete. Of course it worked up until the last Calibre update. Does anybody have any ideas?
Oops!!! 3 years later (I was looking at my join date) and again the same problem. Last edited by LUanne; 10-14-2020 at 10:31 PM. |
