maybe ExportHighlights=true could be a solution, adding this string to a system file (really easy hack) enables an hidden feature to save all highlights and notes of an ebook as a txt file in the main memory of the reader, is not Evernote integration but it's usefull.

I can't find the answer to my question on this site. I am sure somebody has had this problem before:
I have a bunch of PDF books. They don't have proper cover pages, that is, the first page of the PDF is not the cover page of the book. I would like to add cover pages to these books. I use Calibre. I know how to add a cover page in Calibre. The problem is when I upload the PDF to my device, and when I read the book, and when I turn the reader off, the cover page does not show up as Kobo is sleeping. Instead the first page of the PDF file shows up. Is there anyway I can tell Kobo what cover page to use instead of the PDF's first page? Thanks! |

Kobo Touch refused to sync complaining there is not enough space on device. I used calibre to get the book and the reader forgot my bookmarks. Now when I plug it into calibre it informs me the database is corrupted. I remember reading that I ought to sign out of kobo account but, I'm not sure what's that going to do my ADE authorization. What should I do?
(And what did I do to corrupt database in first place?) |

danicca: The main way you could cause the database corruption is by not safely ejecting the ereader from the PC before disconnecting it. As the device ran out of space, the corruption is probably related to that. I suspect that the loss of bookmarks are related to this as well.
Doing a logout will remove the ADE authorisation. But, you can get ADE to do this again on the next connect. But, you can also take a copy of some files before the logout and restore them. Take a copy of all the ".adobe-digital-editions" directory. After logging out and back in, restore the directory and all the files in it. At least one of the files is hidden, so make sure you have both the "device.xml" and "activation.xml" files. |

I copied folder back, but it didn't want to open drm books and touch crashed when I tried to open drm pdf. (Strangely, it did say it was authorized? Does it matter that I sent the books via calibre?) I did factory reset, and now I can't do setup via wifi. Is there a way to manage setup without kobo desktop?
Edit:Okay, I downloaded firmware and updated it manually, except the adobe books still not work. I tried plugging device into ADE and it says it is authorized, but when I tried to send books there was no processing message and there is only black rectangle instead of cover. What did I miss?

There is no entry for "numPartialUpdatePageTurns" in my "Kobo eReader.conf" file. I discovered that if you add the line: numPartialUpdatePageTurns=90 at the end of the [Reading] section it works a treat. Seems the line has been taken out but is still valid. |

I was wondering if it was possible to set something like this to change the setting to automatically turn off I would like the kobo is turned off after 3 or 4 hours , but the settings you can set a maximum of 60 minutes or never you can add a line into KoboeReader.conf that sets this? |
