Which cloud services are supported?

Google Drive
Dropbox

Can I read my downloaded books with Calibre-go?

No. Calibre-go is not a reader app. There are already many beautifully functional reading application on Play Store that support a multitude of formats & features. Google Drive comes pre-integrated with most android phones and it has an integrated PDF reader. Same goes with Dropbox android application too. Calibre-go launches any of these apps for you when you try to open a book through Calibre-go.

Downloading multiple books at once?

There is currently no support for downloading multiple books at once because the intent of the application is to browse your library but download books only on demand when you need them. The device storage is constrained. Keeping all your books on device defeats the purpose of cloud integration. This is what we feel; though if there are enough demands for such a feature, we might go ahead with the implementation.

SD card support?

Not yet! That is still under development.

The calibre Content server allows you to access your calibrelibraries and read books directly in a browser on your favorite mobile phone ortablet device. As a result, you do not need to install any dedicated bookreading/management apps on your phone. Just use the browser. The serverdownloads and stores the book you are reading in an off-line cache so that youcan read it even when there is no internet connection.

Contents

To start the server, click the Connect/share button and chooseStart Content server. You might get a message from your computer’sfirewall or anti-virus program asking if it is OK to allow access tocalibre.exe. Click the Allow or OK button. Then open a browser(preferably Chrome or Firefox) in your computer and type in the followingaddress:

This will open a page in the browser showing you your calibre libraries, clickon any one and browse the books in it. Click on a book, and it will show youall the metadata about the book, along with buttons to Read bookand Download book. Click the Read book button tostart reading the book.

Note

The address used above http://127.0.0.1:8080 will only work onthe computer that is running calibre. To access the server from othercomputers/phones/tablets/etc. you will need to do a little more work,as described in the next section.

There are two types of remote device access that you will typically need. Thefirst, simpler kind is from within your home network. If you are runningcalibre on a computer on your home network and you have also connected yourother devices to the same home network, then you should be easily able toaccess the server on those devices.

After starting the server in calibre as described above, click theConnect/share button again. Instead of the Start Contentserver action, you should see a Stop Content server actioninstead. To the right of this action will be listed an IP addressand port number. These look like a bunch of numbers separated by periods. Forexample:

These numbers tell you what address to use to connect to the server in yourdevices. Following the example above, the address becomes:

The first part of the address is always http:// the next part is the IPaddress, which is the numbers before the comma and finally we have the portnumber which must be added to the IP address with a colon (:). If you arelucky, that should be all you need and you will be looking at thecalibre libraries on your device. If not, read on.

Trouble-shooting the home network connection¶

If you are unable to access the server from your device, try the followingsteps:

Check that the server is running by opening the addresshttp://127.0.0.1:8080 in a browser running on the same computer asthe server.
Check that your firewall/anti-virus is allowing connections to yourcomputer on the port 8080 and to the calibre program. Theeasiest way to eliminate the firewall/anti-virus as the source ofproblems is to temporarily turn them both off and then try connecting. Youshould first disconnect from the internet, before turning off thefirewall, to keep your computer safe.
Check that your device and computer are on the same network. This meansthey should both be connected to the same wireless router. In particularneither should be using a cellular or ISP provided direct-WiFi connection.
If you have non-standard networking setup, it might be that the IPaddress shown on the Connect/share menu is incorrect.In such a case yo
