Calibre Sync for Android & iOS - Page 12

I usually use Content Server to download and Wireless Sync to update

I am having a weird bug. I emailed the developers with no response, so I am posting about it here.

Some ebooks are not reliably listed as "downloaded" even once a format for the book has been downloaded. Those books do not appear in the list of downloaded books and they cannot be opened via the "Read" button. However, they can be opened via the button to open a specific format. (On the book details page, below the cover image.)

It appears that some books, when downloaded via Calibre Sync, are downloaded to the device's Books folder and to the Downloads folder. Those books work normally. Others are downloaded only to the Books folder. Those books do not appear as "downloaded books" in Calibre Sync and cannot be opened using the "read" button (or using the "download and open" swipe). Strangely, they can be opened via the "formats" button, and doing so results in a copy of the book appearing in the Downloads folder. (This does not fix any of the other functionality I mentioned.)

I have not been able to figure out why some books are affected and others are not. Has anyone encountered this? Does anyone know of a fix?
