Kindle Fire (5th Generation)
I keep getting the following error when conecting Calibre to my Kindle Fire using windows 10. Any help would be much appreciated.
calibre, version 3.29.0 ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device Cannot write to file: hr=2147500037 facility=0 error_code=16389 description: Unspecified error Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 87, in run File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 510, in _books File "site-packages\calibre\devices\mtp\driver.py", line 218, in books File "site-packages\calibre\devices\mtp\driver.py", line 190, in get_driveinfo File "site-packages\calibre\devices\mtp\driver.py", line 180, in _update_drive_info File "site-packages\calibre\devices\mtp\driver.py", line 151, in put_calibre_file File "site-packages\calibre\devices\mtp\windows\driver.py", line 37, in check_thread File "site-packages\calibre\devices\mtp\windows\driver.py", line 441, in put_file WPDError: Cannot write to file: hr=2147500037 facility=0 error_code=16389 description: Unspecified error Last edited by stonemason; 08-14-2018 at 08:20 AM. |

That is an error communicating with the device. Usually, this kind of error can be fixed by
following the steps below in sequence. First: 1) Try rebooting both the device and your computer 2) If that does not work, find the files driveinfo.calibre and metadata.calibre on the device and delete them (you can use Windows Explorer or a file manager on the device itself to do this) 3) Reset the device If none of those work, you can use one of the wireless communication methods described here: https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq...kindle-fire-hd |
