Re: Help opening ebook files (epub, mobi, PDF, etc.)

5. It's the first issue I've had opening an EPUB on my laptop.
6. Error message is This is not a valid EPUB file or EPUB appears to be invalid
7. I tried Calibre and an Epub Reader Chrome extension

2. Android
3. No
4. I've pasted the book in Kindle folder but the book is not showing in the Kindle app. I've tried to open the open directly, but couldn't open it.
5. I've always preferred pdf format to read so I didn't try the epub format at all. But since the book is available only in epub format, I've downloaded it but couldn't open it.
6. The error is "couldn't open the file".
7. Free nok is not available and calibre works best for desktop rather in mobile, so I downloaded Kindle but couldn't open the book.

You need the Nook App for that format. You can't open EPUB in the Kindle App. You need to convert it to MOBI (via the free Calibre App) to be able to open it on Kindle.Hari Priya 1 wrote: ↑17 May 2021, 03:47 1. Epub

5. The downloading link isn’t opening.
6. There is no error message. The link simply doesn’t open.

You should download the book to your PC, and then move it to your cell, but the file won't open without the App. You can try to convert it to pdf or to Mobi (if you have the Kindle App) after downloading the file to your PC. If you don't succeed, you will have to report it or quit the book via your Update tab.
