You could try my Magic Memory Upgrade Mod. With that the Kobo would upgrade itself.

I haven't tested it in a while but should still work.

Why do you want 64G?

Are you sure the device will support a 64GB card internally/

Just downloaded and tested MiniTool Partition Wizard Free here. When I right-click on a partition, it has an option to "Move/resize" near the top of the menu. This only appeared if the card was writeable. Did you remove the card from the PC after writing the image? Also, you probably need to run it as an administrator.

As this is a free version and there is a paid version, there might be limitation on function, and larger cards/disks are likely to trigger this. I'm using a 4GB card, and it seems to be OK.

There are also other partition managers around that will you could try. I'd suggest a search to find one you like. Then there are other ways to do it. If you have access to a Linux machine, the tools are built in. Or you can put the card in the device, enable telnet and do it on the device. There is a thread here explaining how to do this.

Thankyou so much. I will try with another card.

I used transend card , and I did so easy. All of my card is new, but I think Adata brand didn't work well.

When I upgraded my Glo HD to 64 GB, I used Linux and GPartEd to copy the partitions over and resize the main file system. I'm not sure why, but it didn't seem to like the new expanded filesystem, so I tried restoring to factory settings, and it reformatted the expanded filesystem and everything is fine now, and it recognizes that the main filesystem is about 58 GB.
