Calibre not downloading metadata
It's failing for all books, with both sources that I have selected (Goodreads and Amazon). Any ideas?

I would the most likely cause for this would be your firewall software blocking Calibre's internet access.

There is an issue downloading metadata from Amazon.com.
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\metadata\sources\amazon.py", line 224, in parse_details File "site-packages\calibre\ebooks\metadata\sources\amazon.py", line 313, in parse_title IndexError: list index out of range |

Nothing to do with my firewall cause I don't have one (nor does my router have one). And, it's not just amazon. Goodreads isn't downloading either. I've not changed anything at all from the last time it was working (yesterday).

You might want to submit a bug report with all the details and a copy of the metadata download job. For now I've just unchecked Amazon as one of my metadata download sources.
Update: Kovid says a fix will be in the next calibre release. Last edited by DoctorOhh; 10-19-2011 at 10:04 PM. |

Do we know if Kovid is working on a fix for this? I'm sure most everyone is experiencing this problem, whether they have reported it here or not.
