AZW3 conversion in Calibre 2.43 does not load to Kindle Voyage
Dear experts,
Calibre is an amazing software. I sincerely appreciate it. Now I'm using Kindle Voyage. Firmware version 5.6.5. Then I converted an EPUB book to AZW3 format using Calibre 2.4.3. After pumping it to my Kindle, although the file exist in the `document/` directory, it does not load in my Kindle. Strangely, Kindle can view the content of existing AZW3 files which I converted using Calibre older version. How can I resolve the issue? Best, Fool |

Try rebooting your Kindle. Occasionally new books don't show up until a reboot.

I'm having the same issue with a Paperwhite 2. Are you using a Mac?

For what it's worth, I was having the same issue. MOBI files show up, AZW3 files weren't showing up all of a sudden, even though I've been loading them for years. AZW3 files showed up in the directory structure, but wouldn't appear on the Kindle. I submitted a bug request with Calibre and I was told immediately that it was an indexing problem, which I knew it wasn't because I had already checked that.
Turning off the wifi seemed to solve the issue for me. I've historically had it turned off but had it on this time. I don't know why that makes a difference but I guess I will have to remember to turn it off before side loading books. I let the people at Calibre know. |

A stuck indexing process is a common cause of this problem and is definitely worth checking.

@smirkin,
Didn't you post that here as well, and also mention that the AZW3 files were entirely new books (not the same as the EPUB you converted from)? I think something odd is going on... Quote:
