E-book viewer not working after update
Greetings!

I just downloaded 2.75.1 and now the e-book reader doesn't seem to work.

I get a box with a question mark [?] instead of a page.

It still shows the same number of pages [1.0 / 567] but doesn't advance with the keyboard arrows, or in the slider bar.

(on Mac, 10.10.5)

Same problem for me on 2.75.1 using the latest Mac OS 10.12.2. When using the Calibre book viewer, about half my ePubs show nothing but a huge blue question mark on every page. Also, all the books I tried to view have a problem with the TOC. When a chapter link in the left column is tapped, Safari opens with an error message, instead of Calibre going to the correct chapter in the viewer. I had to revert back to 2.75.0.

I'm having the exact same problem. I wish I could go back to the old version, is that even possible?

Yes, the older versions are available to download from the Calibre website. Just install 2.75.0 on your Mac and select "replace". Worked for me.

Of course it is, from the OSX download page :-
