Are you getting this error for every book on your Kindle or only for some books or only for some news items?

I'm not sure I understand. Are you getting this error when you open the book itself or when you try to click a link in the book?

Yes, I download the item into Calibre, select it, make sure it is MOBI format, connect the kindle to usb, then click the send to device button. After the job indicator stops it show in the kindle home page. In the Kindle I select it and press the enter key and get "Failed feed:Image of the day" plus the Error 10013 message. I press page advance the I get "Failed feed: Moon and mars Exploration" and so on through all the sections ot the site. I also get the same results when I send the item to the Online Kindle reader. Thanks, Don |

That just means the NASA recipe is probably broken. Try the economist instead, I know that one works.

The ones I had tried before were: Popular Science The Oregonian NASA 2 books (can't recall names) National revue online All those failed with the same error. however I just retried the national revue online and it did work this time. It looks like my process has been correct but the recipes are broken! Thanks for the help. Don |

It would have been easier to help you if your initial title was accurate. As it turns out "Cannot open book or news in Kindle3" wasn't accurate since only recipes are affected. |
