Eject Device Button and nook Simple Touch

[David Schussler]

Hi,
-nook Simple Touch not ejecting correctly-

I have a Windows 7 64-bit desktop. W7 is currently up to date.
Calibre version 0.9.29 64-bit version is installed.

Steps to produce:
1. nook Simple Touch is open to a page on a book.
2. Open Calibre.
3. Connect NST to USB port and it gets recognized by W7 and a few seconds later by Calibre.
4. Add or remove books - they are stored on the microSD card.
 *here's were the bug (?) occurs.
5. If you use the 'Eject Device' button/or menu item. The nook is ejected, but with no confirmation. (Never has been, even with the 1st gen nook.)
6. Disconnect NST.
7. Re-open book you were reading. It is usually on a previously read pages back. Bookmarking the page ahead of time doesn't help. I read on some forum, that they were having the same problem, but if you use Window to eject the device by right-clicking on the drive icons and selecting 'eject,' you get the "its safe" message and the book opens at the right place.

Thank you any assistance in resolving this - also if you could get a "Safe to disconnect" message after ejecting, it would be nice.

This is not smething that can be fixed in calibre, it is a bug in the
Nook. Try connecting a Kindle or a SONY reader for example, and ejecting
will work fine. I suggest you use the windows eject functionality if it
works for you.
