Failed to read book error message
I tried to open 3 MOBI files, and received 2 separate error messages:
Book 1: Quote:
Books 2 & 3: Quote:
I've never had this issue before when trying to open or convert a MOBI file. Is there a plugin or something I could get to open the files, or are they basically corrupt and therefore garbage? Last edited by HarryT; 02-18-2019 at 02:52 AM. |

Also looking at the path, it appears that you are storing your library in iCloud. Generally speaking, using local storage for a calibre library is a very good idea. Storing your library on a NAS, in the cloud, on a shared drive is going to bite your butt sooner or later.
