Aura HD Cloud download epub using Kobo Aura HD

svda · 11-04-2015, 01:29 PM

I used to be able, with older Kobo Aura HD firmware, to download epubs when using the browser on my Kobo Aura HD. I used dropbox, tapped on the epub I wanted and it automatically downloaded and was added instantly to the library. Now, nothing happend when I tap on an epub to download it from the cloud using the browser of my Kobo Aura HD.

Why's that ? And since when is that ? And is there a fix or am I doing something wrong ? I also tried googledrive. Nothing works for me.

I am now using firmware 3.18.0 (23-09-15)

strange, but I have the same since few weeks on my Aura H2O. I thought it was the upgrade to 3.18 but checked also 3.16 and still not working. Looks like Dropbox changed something. Can somebody confirm ?

I don't use dropbox, so I can't test that. But, 3.18.0 can download from other sites. I have tested with the calibre server and my library on the Kobo site.

I posted the same some time ago, and I had to engine my proper solution... And it's been working until today:

It is not as easy as creating a dropbox account, but it's not really hard either and you can use it anywhere you are.

Googledrive doesn't work for me either, so it's not only Dropbox.
