Paths on Devices

Last update made me really mad cause it changed the path of the books on my device. Its not very userfriendly if this path changes suddenly.... my reader didnt found any books...
It would be great if there is an option to define the path manually.

opened a bugticket on launchpad

The update did not change anything. The calibre android driver picks the first directory that exists from the following list:

['eBooks/import', 'wordplayer/calibretransfer', 'Books']

Presumably you recently installed Aldiko which created ebooks/import.

You can customize that by customizing the android plugin in Preferences->Plugins.
