Apparently Kobo Desktop is not compatible with the Vox?

Gave up trying to read books and went to the Scrabble app ... no surprise it doesn't work either.

I emailed Kobo Help and it has been greater than 48 hours and no reply.

I am not a happy camper right now.
I can tell you that I have confirmed that the Vox is not recognized by ADE or Calibre and probably never will be (at least, in the forseeable future). I have had to download the Overdrive App to read my library books on my Vox, whereas I used to sideload them in ADE after I downloaded them from Overdrive on my PC. I am not sure what people are doing that are buying books from B&N or Sony. Only kpubs (Kobo's epubs) can be read from the Kobo app (and therefore be utilized with Reading Life and Pulse).

Not sure about not being able to import books from your SD Card. Can you copy them to internal storage using Astro? Maybe try to import your books via WiFi instead?

Most people are not getting any timely support from the regular help line. If you'd like to PM me, I could give you some suggestions for direct help.
