Touch ADE doesn't detect any books on the KT or SD card

Tangent · 08-23-2011, 09:30 PM

ADE does not recognize any of keypubs on the KTor any epubs on the SD card when connected.
The KT is authorized and there is a Kobo icon that shows up but it is empty and I can't find a menu command to transfer a book from ADE to the KT.

The KT is v. 1.9.9. It has had several factory resets due to the corrupt storage error which is why I added the SD card to make the reinstall easier.

Any ideas on what I may be missing here?

Thanks

Yeah, it can't see the Kobo epups, that's normal. Dunno about regular epups on the SD card - ADE sees regular epubs fine in my KT's main memory.

So that answers the keypub question.
I haven't been using ADE so I just realized that getting books from ADE onto the KT is to drag and drop from one bookshelf to the Kobo bookshelf.
So the last thing seems to be that ADE does not read the SD card where my books are usually installed. That seems fine.

ADE cannot be used to manage EPUBs on an SD card. You should investigate the use of calibre which can be used to manage the EPUBs on a SD card.
