9 years ago If you're using iOS 8.3, there's a known compatibility problem with it. Nothing can be done about it at this time. http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=241143&page=33
I have followed all the steps to set up the connection between Marvin and Calibre.
Thus I have Marvin installed on the I-pad. I have the IOS reader pugin installed on calibre with Marvin (XD) selected as my preferred reader. When I try to connect, I have a functional cable (IPad detects in Itunes) and I open the Marvin app, click "get books" and set up the calibre connection. The calibre connection in Marvin says "ready", but the Marvin icon never appears in Calibre, nor does any other indication that my Ipad is detected. I have turned the Itunes plugin on and off in calibre (it's off at the moment) in relation to instructions I found on the Marvin app website.
When I run debug device detection the final lines suggest that there is no device that is being missed.
Below is the text of the debug device detection results.
