Can't connect Kobo Aura
I can't connect my Kobo Aura to calibre--I'm not sure what I messed up but am starting here and will move to the Kobo forums if necessary

When I connect my Kobo Aura, calibre says it can't connect and gives me this error

calibre, version 1.26.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

database disk image is malformed

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 86, in run
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 490, in _books
File "site-packages\calibre\devices\kobo\driver.py", line 1781, in books
File "site-packages\calibre\devices\kobo\driver.py", line 1657, in get_bookshelvesforbook
DatabaseError: database disk image is malformed

Before I got this error I forgot to eject my Aura/microSDcard manually and messed it up. I have reformatted my card but it hasn't seemed to clear it. I get the same error message whether my card is in my Aura or not.

Any ideas what I need to do? Clear it all and start over? Thanks for your help!
