[Kindle] Since last upgrade, Calibre doesn't see books
With the last upgrade, something happened to where Calibre is not SEEING the newly downloaded books. They are in the Kindle for PC library, but when I go to 'add new books' they don't show up to import into Calibre. What happened? I have 3 days worth of books downloaded that I can't import.
I'm using Windows 7 pro, 64 bit, my browser is Firefox and I'm downloading from Amazon to my PC. Last edited by LadyFaire; 08-06-2017 at 12:13 PM. Reason: additional info |

Have you updated your Kindle app? The old version had books in awz format in a single directory. The new version of Kindle has a directory for each book and has them in kfx (?) format, which is encrypted, and there is no Calibre plug-in to handle them.

Nothing done to the kindle itself, and the format is still the same. If I OPEN each book, even momentarily, THEN Calibre will see the book. Otherwise - nope. As though it isn't even there. And this all started last week when my Calibre did an update.

This has nothing whatsoever to do with Calibre. |
