Kobo Glo connection issues
Hi, I've spent the last couple of hours reading and can't see why I'm having issues with the new Glo.
I'm running Windows 7, 64 bit and the Kobo is showing up just fine as device (G) on USB but Calibre just isn't seeing it at all. I've tried telling the plugin to 'Attempt to support new firmware' to no avail. Can anyone give me any pointers as to what I'm doing wrong please? Not sure if you need the Debug log, or what part, so I've copied the whole lot below. Thanks Code:

The reason that you can't connect calibre to the Kobo Glo is that there is no calibre driver that recognizes it. Your report of the device id gives enough information to add it to the driver.
I will send you a PM so that you can test something for me. |

I can connect to my new Kobo glo (calibre version 0.9.3) calibre says connected to "kobo touch).
I can send books to my reader and i see the green check that shows me they are on my device. but when i restart calibre and i connect my ereader it seems that there are no books on my kobo. Is kobo glo supported ? |

It definitely is supported and its meant to show as the kobo touch as there's no difference from calibres point of view. No idea why your books wouldn't be visible afterwards though as its working here.

Are you waiting for the Job Wheel to stop spinning (and say 0)?
Calibre transfers the book, then it updates metadata.calibre ON THE DEVICE. When you connect again, that is the first file retrieved (after device identification). If that file does not exist (or corrupt) Calibre scans your device... <time passes> then INITIAL status is updated, (Guess from observed behavior) next the changed items status is processed <more time> NB Items that were changed in Calibre after transfer will initially show as Not on device, and will update after the changed scan completes. |

yes, after i post my problem in this forum i found the bug reporting.
I tried several times to disconnect and riconnect the device but I had no luck. I tried also to shutdown the device and then restart. The glo recognize the books, I read one of them last night. I was waiting for doing some other test before replying in the bug thread Today I found a thread (italian forum) in which a user had the same problem, after deleting all the tag with a plugin ( i asked what plugin did he spoke of or if he simply removed the tag) he solved the problem. When I'll go home, i will try to do that kind of test Sorry for replicating the problem, here and in calibre bug but i thought this forum was just followed by user Last edited by michelar; 10-22-2012 at 05:17 AM. |

Are any books displayed on the device list? Do you used a plugboard when sending the books to the Glo? Quote:

Well, after a lot of test this is what i discovered.
Now i have two pc with calibre on On the first one i have 0.9.3 On the second one i have 0.9.1 1)With 0.9.3 i put a book on the device, everythink is ok (library and device info shows the green check) I close calibre and reopen it The book are not visible in the device tab nor in library tab (no green check) unplugging the usb or restart the device does not change anything. i tried also a pc restart After that I connect my device to 0.9.1 and.... I see my book on the device (not in the library because the library is not update) I close calibre, unplug the device Now when i connect my device to 0.9.3 I can see the book on my device but not in the library (no green check on LIBRARY) I saved all the files metadata.calibre and driveinfo.calibre and i see that after sending the book the metadata.calibre is full with a lot of strange character I attach the file after insert a book. Do you think my library is corrupted ? Tomorrow i will try to uninstall calibre and reinstall it. Michela |

The last book is the problem. The title is "Il posto di ognuno - 7". Is that exactly what is displayed in the calibre library? And what does the device show on its library list? Could you also try sending a book from calibre whose title and title sort are identical? That means it can't start with an article such as "Il" or "The" or "A" for English. I'm curious about whether that will work properly. Quote:
