I was wondering if anyone else has experienced missing covers when sideloading from calibre to a kindle Scribe recently? Mine has worked up until today with no problem. I keep it in airplane mode and somehow (?) must have knocked it out of airplane mode because I looked down and saw a message about it updating software right before it rebooted. I transferred about a half-dozen books from calibre to my scribe after it fully rebooted but then discovered none of them have covers (just the generic thumbnail), but all my previous loaded content still seems to have them. My scribe is reporting it's now running 5.16.3.1, so is that what is causing the problem? Any/or any known way to fix? This is the worst. Many thanks in advance for any help!
