Tried it from the desktop and from within the download folder and when the mounting process gets to "Attaching" my system crashes and reboots. Scion Oct 5 Support for High Sierra and lower has been dropped. Not a smart move at this time.
Scion Sep 13 MacUpdate Admins - version 3. Scion Feb 4 Calibre is But it leaves you wanting something a bit cleaner. It is bloated, hopefully the devs clean it up.
It's a powerful ebook manager and converter. I've been using it since I got my Kindle. It gets better with the updates. Calibre is nice and all, but it is also a behemoth full of bloat and slow like a snail -- maybe because it's coded in Python? Me, I love agile apps that doesn't ship everything-AND-the-kitchen-sink, are quick to open and do its thing well without much fanfare. Do you guys know of any good alternative fully macOS native? Michael-Mayer Jun 19 I've been using calibre since version 0.
In that time the team and the main developer have worked tirelessly to improve the product. It's by far the most powerful ebook tool in existence.
It's robust and great at converting your old PDB books into ePub format, and the ePub editor is getting better all the time.
If you have a lot of ebooks to keep track of, this is the tool you want! It stopped working unexpectedly on my machine. StimulusR May 26 This app is nearly perfect. I've been using this app for the past 4 years and it's only gotten better over time.
The developers know what to do with this app to keep the good features and add great features that make the app better. It can handle huge libraries and the organization is excellent.
It's really easy to find a book in the pile. The random book selector is a wonderful feature when you can't decide what to read next. I hope this app keeps going for as long as there are ebooks.
Ervins Strauhmanis Apr 10 Great app! I especially like that I can simply use the "ebook-viewer. Albabe Mar 29 I have been over the Prefs for this app 4 or 5 times and I can not figure-out how to View Files in their Original Ratio.
Not that User Friendly. A very stable ebook manager. It has some serious shortcomings, though. Trying to narrow that down requires adding keywords - like I remember to add those every time ha! Plugins are also not updated regularly with few exceptions.
And you also cannot organize all of your ebooks into folders and subfolders which would help solve the filter problem. However, it is still light years ahead of iBooks and not nearly as restrictive as Kindle.
I am a regular user, but I really, really, really hope that an alternative comes out soon. Pfackelmann Oct 7 Calibre is working well, I'm satisfied with the order in my libraries the app made.
I just had a little problem trying to convert into PDF format but my tech friend helped me with that and everything's working fine so far. Panocha Dec 25 It is NOT the real download. If you get a file called "calibre installer.
Your download should be over 80MB. Go to the author's website to get the real file. Nontroppo Nov 7 Conversion is great and the ecceptionally powerful EBook editing really makes light work of very complex changes. Regular improvements and great plugins. Derekcurrie Nov 6 Happy 10th Birthday! Long may you live. My only complaints: Its icons Write me, I know a great artist! Sgspecker Nov 5 A fantastic app for managing my ebook library.
Don't know where I'd be without it! AnnL Feb 1 No way to take notes and write annotations in Calibre, so — for my purpose — the ebooks must be converted. After conversion, text in PDFs can neither be searched nor copied.
The created PDFs are therefore utterly useless, until they themselves are converted again, this time with an OCR software. I have used OCRKit for this purpose.
The whole process is a real pain in the butt. I have now decided to dump Calibre due to the above mentioned drawbacks. Clearview does an excellent job in converting ebooks to PDFs. The text is searchable and can be copied right away.
Clearview has a process bar, so you always see how long a conversion is going to take. In Calibre there is only a rotating wheel, and you never know when it's going to end. I have been unable to find the developer's email address in order to send enhancement requests.
The so-called "calibre bug tracker" takes me to a Ubuntu site. I don't have Ubuntu, so I gave up. Knowhowe Oct 9 Still no idea how to add photographs and music though.
Any ideas people? Version 2. You know, the big advantage of the app - it is free! A little bit slowly thinking, a little bit buggy… But it does what it says and it is totally free! Does really good job for free!
Essadee Apr 23 This software is purpose-driven and will eschew any attempts to make it into something it isn't. You will not find a more feature-complete alternative anywhere, but may find it maddeningly obtuse at times. The UI is not as modern as some of us desire, but yet nobody hates it enough to submit changes — adding to the effort will be the fact that it's not written specifically for OS X but needs to cooperate within the confines of other platforms as well.
There is a place for a developer to take my books and my money if they can manage a library half as well as Calibre and it isn't hard to improve on the reading experience of iBooks, but Calibre is able to tread the ground between desktop, mobile device, and ereader without falling on it's face in spite of the interface and performance oddities that come with most any software with similar requirements and toolkits.
Most of the complaints I have with Calibre have to do with it being great at accepting annotations and data about books but being completely opposed to letting that data travel with my books later — I use it to fix weird formatting in ebooks, view ebooks, and organize a large library of books, but find myself constantly wishing it could be more than the helper application that facilitates my use of other software that is equally frustrating in terms of capabilities.
I don't want to use it, but it's the only card I've got in my hand. It's reliable for me, but not something I take any pleasure in using. Aaron-T Apr 6 Simply the best bibliographic app. An example of pure ugliness. Perhaps even works well. Dgfarrar Jan 2 These features include ability to add annotations, add pages, highlight texts, add bookmarks and even do some hand drawing. This format is has got the latest advancement not only when it comes to indexing but also navigation controls.
Moreover it not only allows you to add handwritten signatures, highlight texts, insert and delete pages but also add stamps to your PDF files. A characteristic of this method is that you do not have to download the software in order to do the conversion. You just use it online. This software is fully compatible with Mac OS X
