Calibre Companion asking for Calibre Password

gjohn4317 · 04-06-2018, 09:08 PM

I use CC on my iPad Air with no problems connecting wirelessly to my desktop computer where Calibre and library are. However, I just downloaded and installed CC on an Amazon Fire 10 tablet that I received, and when I try to connect wirelessly CC insists that I enter my Calibre Password.

Problem: My Calibre library on my desktop isn't password protected. What is going on?

Thanks

Greg

You must have put something in the "Optional password" box in the calibre start wireless device dialog. To check this, click the "connect/share" toolbar button, stop the wireless device, then click the button and start the wireless device. You will be shown the dialog with the password box.
