Issue with sending books to Kindle Voyage via Calibre

CrackedP0t · 07-20-2015, 08:33 PM

So, I used Calibre to send some .mobi books to my Kindle. However, only about 2/6 actually appeared on my Kindle. I looked with a file explorer and the files are all there, but I can't see them on the actual Kindle. It seems random which books worked and which didn't.

1 how did you sent them to your voyage
2. try restarting the voyage.
3. there is a possibility there is an issue or corruption with the ebooks.

1. With calibre's "Send to Device" button.
2. I tried that, and it didn't work.
3. Calibre's ebook viewer reads them just fine.

Remove them all, and then re-add them one at a time, disconnecting and checking to be sure that the book appears each time before adding the next one.

Sounds like the indexer may have jammed on a badly-formatted book, and stopped processing the new books.
When you figure out which is the bad book, reconvert it -- that usually fixes these problems.
