Kobo Touch *STILL* not being recognized by Calibre
This link is to the original thread I started when I first had the problem, that apparently has not yet resolved.

The touch is recognized by the PC but NOT Calibre. I am using the latest version of Calibre on Windows XP.

Right now the only way to get the KT to connect to Calibre has been to do a factory reset and try connecting again: that is most inconvenient and not a suitable solution.

Can anyone out there help?

Thanks for reading.

Then why does the description of the forum called DEVICES say it is for:
Troubleshoot installation and connection issues specific to your device or OS, and learn how to make the most of calibre's device integration features


Also I initially posted in the Kobo forum. If you clicked on the link in my post you would have seen that. I never got any response from you in that forum so tried posting here thinking according to the description this was MORE appropriate.

Does this mean that you have no solution for the problem? If so just say so.

Thank you for you time.

I didn't say the kobo forum, I said Kobo, as in the company that manufactures this device. And I did say I have no solution for this problem, at the link I posted, did you bother to read it?

You just shouted at Calibre's creator

The answer is because this is a single KOBO device problem and NOT a Calibre talking to all Kobo's of the same model.
