Don't See Shared Books

Wed, 08/13/2008 - 15:02 — dbeeman

Love the program! Or at least the idea. I haven't gotten it to work yet - but I'm close. I worked through the Bonjour issue - uninstalling and re-installing, etc. Now I'm seeing my PC name on my phone but there are no books on the list - and I have shared them in the Stanza Desktop program. Ideas?

What happens when you tap on

What happens when you tap on your computer's name in Stanza? Does it just freeze, or does it show a blank screen? And do you definitely have the book open in Stanza Desktop?

Also, have you taken a look at the troubleshooting instructions at:

I only see shared books if I

I only see shared books if I have a Stanza viewer open with them... If I close the Stanza windows on my PC, I can't see the "Shared" books.

That is how sharing works I believe

I think that is how sharing works-it only finds books that are open in the Stanza Viewer. You open the books you want to have shared in Stanza's desktop program, they show up on the iPhone under Shared, and you download them to your iPhone, and you are set!

Correct. Since Stanza does

Correct. Since Stanza does not (yet) have any built-in library management functions, the only way it knows which books you want to share is to open the books individually in Stanza.
