Deleting Newspapers ?

idave321 · 02-13-2011, 11:14 AM

Can anyone tell me how to delete old newspapers from my Kobo. I tried a few trial subscriptions to papers and magazines but canceled after the trial. I now find myself with old papers from November that will not go away, I can delete them from the device but the next time I buy a book and update, it puts the 4 month old papers back on my reader. Any help would be appreciated.

Log in at the Kobo website and go to your library, specifically the I'm Reading list for your account on the website. Delete it there.

I believe you can also drop them from the Desktop application. On the left side of the screen in Library select "News and Mags" then, you can right click on the papers on the right of the screen and select delete.

Thanks for the suggestions but papers and mags are not shown in my "I'm reading" list at the kobo site, and the library section of the desktop app offers only ALL and BOOKS.

You might need to update the desktop.. what version are you running?

It's v1.7.1 (Oct 26 2010) on 64bit Ubuntu Linux.

I think you need desktop 1.8 to support Magazines / Papers.
