[iOS] on my device with iPad

pwalker8 · 05-11-2017, 07:50 PM

I've run into a new problem, or at least one I just noticed. For a while, I've noticed that if I change the meta data on an ebook on my iPad, such as mark it as read, calibre won't show it as on my device the next time I sync via wireless sync. Not a big deal, I just resend it and every thing is synced up. I just make sure I mark books as read in calibre when I read them.

Yesterday, I downloaded a book via content server rather than wireless sync (I was down stairs and didn't want to come back up stairs). Today, when I tried to sync, the only book that was marked as on my device was the book I had downloaded. The other 2999 showed as not on my device. I was able to fix it by downloading everything via wireless again, but it was a bit of a pain.

The books never disappeared from the iPad, it just seemed that the connection between calibre and CC on the iPad got messed up somehow. Not a huge deal, since the vast majority of time, I do use the wireless sync, but just thought I would report it.

Thanks

Hi, yes, this is a bizarre bug. It was reported on another thread (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=285650) as well, and I'm trying to figure out the cause.
