Hi Taming

Thank you for your response.

I am using the current version of Calibre (0.7.48)

The SDHC card problem has been fixed by deleting all directories and all ePub files. The Kobo will not boot up if there are any epub files on the card. For the moment I have removed the card and and will save new books to the Kobo's main memory.

The problems seem to be coming back to any ePub files that are added to the Kobo. Regardless of transfer method (using Calibre or drag and drop) the Kobo does not recognise the files as being present. When using Calibre to copy ePub's to the Kobo a new directory (named for the author) is added to the Kobo root directory and the ePub file is is in the new directory. I have even tried dragging and dropping the ePub file only to the Kobo root directory, but without success.

Is it possible that the Kobo will only see added books in one of the other sub-directories? If so, which one?

Looking forward to eventually resolving this.
