Kobo will not load Book
I've been having issues with the Kobo, so I did a Factory Reset. Then I added all my books to the latest Calibre configuration. I updated the Meta Data for all the books and then I downloaded the books to the reader. Everything shows up fine.
Now, when I try to open a book any book, they all get stuck on the load screen. None of the books will open! I can turn the Kobo Off and On to get back to the main menu, but it does not make a difference. Please Help! |

It seems that I can open the calibre Maunal on the Kobo. But, anything with new metadata will not open?
Edit: More info. The books were all bought off the Kobo Website. Due to the sync issue, I downloaded them all to "Adobe Digital Additions" which is fine for transfering the books, but a lot of the time the cover doesn't come with it. So I updated all my books on calibre with the metadata feature to get the covers of the books. I am new to calibre. Did I miss a step? Since the books are DRM, does adding a cover to the book screw it up? I don't know. So confused! Last edited by JASR; 05-27-2011 at 12:31 AM. |

If you forced the covers into the file somehow, you probably broke your DRM key. Or the device is no longer 'registered' to the same ADE account that bought the books. |

I ended up having to replace all the books through the Kobo app, but when I buy a new book, I hope to be able to modify it. |
