I keep getting 'could not find Calibre'.
My PC is wired, connection is 'private'. I can ping the PC from my phone. If I start the Calibre content server, I can open a browser on my phone and go to [PC IP address]:8080 and I get a page showing my books.
To get to this point, I went to my firewall, deleted all rules that mention 'calibre', rebooted, restarted caliblre, opened wireless connection, said 'yes' to the firewall dialog that pops up - and see a new firewall rule for calibre.
Any ideas?
