I had a problem with multiple authors and I thought that my problem was that I didn't have authors formatted correctly and I didn't so I fixed them. I connected wirelessly and that still didn't fix it so I deleted the book and downloaded it again using the wireless connection and that didn't appear to work either, but I think this is where my connection problems must have started. Calibre showed my device as still connected and had the checkmarks for the books including the one I had a problem with, but that book was not on my device so the last send to device did not work.
At some point in all this my Nexus 7 stopped communicating with Calibre and got the following error:
I have had this happen before, but couldn't remember exactly what I did so I didn't report it, but I do remember connecting and disconnecting a few times in a row and deleting a book. I had to reboot the tablet to be able to connect again - force stopping CC didn't work. Here are the steps I took this time, but I still am unsure exactly where the connection problems occurred:
1. fixed the authors in the book in Calibre.
2. connected wirelessly to Calibre.
3. checked the author grouping and still didn't see the books I expected. (I was looking at the wrong author, so the wireless connection may have fixed it)
4. disconnected using CC so I could delete the book.
5. deleted the book in CC
6. connected wirelessly to Calibre.
7. sent the book again.
8. checked the author grouping and still didn't see the books I expected so I looked for the book itself and the book wasn't there even though Calibre showed it as being there.
At this point I noticed that CC showed not connected so I tried to connect again and got the error msg.
I have CC 3.05, Calibre .9.36, Nexus 7 4.2.2
