eLibrary Manager / Re: Issues with downloads
June 25, 2020, 11:33:51 PM
Hi;

I am not able to connect my kindle directly to my computer (they don't recognize each other) so I remove the microSD card from the kindle and use a card reader to communicate with my computer.  I copy the whole book folder from the Calibre Library folder over tot he SD card, not just the epub file itself.  The whole book folder includes the following documents: cover(jpg file), metadata(OPF doc) & the book itself(epub file). After returning the microSD, I click on the barcode and update the book files.  Only on some of the books now missing a cover has the metadata been updated (the covers weren't on any of them) and they all date from 2018 & 2019.  For some as well the metadata that is in the Calibre file doesn't match what is now showing in the elibrary manager despite the fact that they contain exactly the same files as I am copying them wholesale at the author level to the sd card.

Good afternoon;

I have upgraded to the full version of the app and been copying book files from my calibre account to the micro SD for my Kindle Fire 7.  For some reason, about 10% of the books no longer have covers(they had covers on the initial download, done months ago before I had to wipe my card and try again), some have the author's name changed and 3 are not the original files that I downloaded.  All books had covers in Calibre and the meta data was updated for all books and authors were correct.

Any thoughts on why the covers are no longer visible and why the authors were changed?  How do I make it correct?
