That is strange! I also have the Sony PRS-505 and have never had a problem with it detecting my reader, except when I tell Calibre to eject device, after which you have to unplug it and plug it back in to be detected! I am running Ubuntu Linux so your experience might not be the same with a different OS! Though I do have to call up Nautilus and tell it to safely remove device to get it to quit charging, haven't removed the 505 without doing that since I found it left ghost devices in my media folder from just unplugging it after it was eject from Calibre!
