Touch Deleted sideloaded - ghosts remain

Psyke · 10-14-2011, 09:21 AM

Hey folks,

has any one else had a problem in that when they delete sideloaded books en mass (ie connect the kobo and delete a full directory via PC), that the books are not being removed from the kobo's menus? what's more, when you try to access the book, you get the message "oops! This document couldn't be opened" which is fine, but the explanation is: "This document is protected by Adobe Digital Rights Management (DRM) license which has expired. Please renew the document's license and try again".

seems kinda odd, and I hadn't seen this problem before; others have mentioned that they couldn't delete the "physical" books off the kobo, but I didn't have that problem...

I'm having this problem too. Haven't found a solution yet.

Maybe some function should be added to the Settings under "Device" where you can force a DB refresh rather than wait for one when a single ebook is added or deleted.
