I haven't had a ton of Kobo issues so I was very surprised at this. Let me see if I can explain in a way that is understandable.

I had an old ebook (#1 in a series) that I'd purchased in .PDF before I owned an ereader. I converted it to .EPUB via Calibre and side-loaded it to my Kobo but never read it. Recently I read a different book in the series and it prompted me to open the book in question.

As I was reading, everything was fine. I plugged my Kobo in to charge it while reading and the book restarted itself on page 1. At first I thought I had done something I had done so I paged back to where I had left off. A few hours later and I needed to hit the “home” button on my Kobo. When I did that the book I was reading restarted itself at page 1 again!

This time I thought it was an error in the coding of the book so I deleted the book from my Kobo and Calibre and reloaded it. The book kept restarting itself on page 1 whenever my reading was interrupted. When I tried to go to the next chapter by using the Table of Contents my Kobo opened up a different book in the same series (and the TOC only offered me two chapter 4 options, nothing else).

At this point I started getting frustrated – I went to the publisher and purchased a new copy of the book in EPUB format. I deleted the previous version from Calibre and from my Kobo. Then I side-loaded the new version into the Kobo.

It is still doing the same thing! Sometimes it is identified as a completely different book that I have read and finished (from a different series entirely) but the content is the book I have had issues with. Sometimes the book comes up as the book itself but the name info is for a different book. The only constant is that the book restarts itself at page one every time.

Please help. I’m clueless.
