Bug Description
I'm not a programmer so I need careful guidance if possible please.
Ereader device connected to my mac is a kindle paper white.
I am able to send other ebooks to device without problem except for one recently published ebook title 'A Boy Made of Blocks' by Stuart Keith - book published sept 2016
Here is a copy of the 'Error details'
[Errno 5] Input/output error: '/Volumes/
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages/

OSError: [Errno 5] Input/output error: '/Volumes/
That's an input/output error, it means there was an error writing to the
kindle disk. This typically indicates that the disk is close to failing.
You may be able to get more life out of it by either resetting the
kindle or reformatting the drive. A bit of googling should get you
instructions on how to do either. Be aware that doing so will delete all
data on the Kindle.
