				Error: Permission Denied
			 
			
			After I have a book in Calibre, after I add metadata and cover, I ok it and I get the message:" Permission Denied. Could not change the on disc location of this book. Is it open in another program." It doesn't happen with every book, maybe every other. Its very annoying. Why is this happening. It never happened before. |

			Some other program must be accessing that file.   Are you storing your library in Dropbox or another cloud storage service? If so, you MUST pause syncing while calibre is running. |

			Thank you. It is being stored on our home cloud system. That explains it.

			WARNING DO NOT RUN from the cloud. Always Pause the Cloud Shadow (of the Library)copy when starting Calibre Calibre is NOT network aware. 2 simultaneous user connections is a sure recipe for    in the future. The only question is When it will bite, not IF |
