Calibre won't load.

FennecTheFox · 01-25-2015, 11:02 PM

I have to say I'm somewhat disappointed.

I just installed Calibre (64 bit) on my Windows 7 64 bit OS

I converted 1 book (conversion seems fine)
I closed Calibre and tried to load it a few hours later and it says
"Not responding" and asks me whether I want to wait or close the program etc.

I don't know what went wrong during the few hours when I wasn't using Calibre, but it seems very unusual to me.

Your antivirus program updated its definitions in the background and has now decided to break calibre?

I had problems with it too. I tried two different versions and had the same problem with both-- when I tried to add books, I got a blank window with just two buttons on the bottom but nothing else and then it would freeze up. I assumed it's the settings on my computer somehow, because the 32-bit version works fine.
