Re: Capture Cover edit buttons missing

Wait, what? Since when did this change happen? I've always been able to slide the crop lines to edit within Capture Cover!

Capture Cover edit buttons missing

Hi, I've just migrated my database over to a new computer and got everything set up to start adding more books. I've had to reset preferences, which is fine, but I can't figure out how to get the "capture cover" feature to work as normal. There is the camera button and the "set" ...

Re: Doghouse contribute fail

The same thing happens to me in Bookpedia. From what I’ve figured out so far, it’s usually either because I forgot to add a cover or there’s some weird character in the title. When I correct those issues, they usually go through. HOWEVER, I have about 20 books for which I cannot figure out why they’...

Re: Bookpedia freezing, "not responding" after taking cover

Any update on this yet? Bookpedia "not responding" and having to force quit after capturing a cover photo is still happening.

Re: Best Practices for adding old books?

There may be a better way, but this is how I do it. I list each of the books in the Summary box. It will then come up in a search. I do the same for like books that are a collection of biographies, where each chapter is on a different person. I list each person in the summary box.

Re: Frequent Crashes

NJan, Did you ever figure this issue out? I'm having the same problem, which has become worse upon downloading 6.0. It's already stopped responding 4 times today where I've had to force quit. And that's with me not even bothering to "capture image" right now because it crashes every time I...

Re: Bookpedia freezing, "not responding" after taking cover

More info: It's now stopped responding twice (out of about 25 books), and I've had to force quit. Both times were after clicking 'add' after inputting book details in a new entry.

Re: Bookpedia freezing, "not responding" after taking cover

Adding that it does both of these things even if I add the book and then go back and try to capture cover after it was added to my library, if that matters.

Bookpedia freezing, "not responding" after taking cover pic

Hi, I just updated my Bookpedia yesterday to the 6.0. I'm on a 2011 MacBook Pro, running 10.13.6 High Sierra. I'm trying to add books, but as soon as I "capture cover," I have 2 issues. 1) The pic shows up in the detail box moved halfway over to the right, cutting off the right side, inste...

Re: Lost data during Sync

I decided to just try to redownload covers from the internet, and it didn't work. For the ones that are coming up with covers, they are wrong. Does it have something to do with the current Covers folder not matching up with the database? Does redownloading them not override the Covers folder that wa...

Re: Lost data during Sync

Great, thanks. I was able to switch the names and get the most updated file on Bookpedia, but of course, it's only the text. Is there any way to get the covers from the iPhone or iPad Pocketpedia backup on iTunes into Bookpedia? We have lots of older books that we have had to take pictures of oursel...

Lost data during Sync

Hi there. I run a private library and currently have 8700+ books in Bookpedia. I am trying to sync data from Pocketpedia to a computer (call it Mac 1) that I haven't run Bookpedia on in a while, as I was using a Mac (Mac 2) in another room. (I had tried syncing the two Macs through Dropbox for a whi...
