Hi
This might be a Calibre problem or it might be a Kindle problem.

This might be a Calibre problem or it might be a Kindle problem.
What did I do?
- As user c ...
- Started Calibre (3.39.1 from Debian Buster repo)
- USB connect the Kindle (Paperwhite, 10th gen)
- Waited for Calibre to detect KIndle
- In Library tab, selected book and clicked "Send book to device"
- Saw message:
Code:ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/media/c/Kindle5/'
- Fixed missing directory (similar workarounds has allowed books to be sent to the Kindle before);
Code:c@CW10:/media/c$ mkdir Kindle5
- Clicked "Send book to device" again
- Saw Jobs spinner spinning
- Saw message that book has been sent to device
- Saw Jobs spinner stop moving. Is that normal, I though it disappeared when the jobs stopped ... ?
- Saw "On Device" value Main
- On Kindle, found book was not listed in DOWNLOADS, ALL or collection Books
What did I try?
- Followed FAQ item "I transferred some books to my Kindle using calibre and they did not show up?" (https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq.html#id31). Tested. Same
- Reset Kindle. Tested. Same
- Tested with different book. Same
What should I try next?
- Re-install Calibre?
- Change USB cable?
- Try on a different computer?
- Something else?
