Thanks for the reply and reassurance about the libraries Kiwi. I think I will have to go the new install route though.
Nothing else plugged in. Even unplugged the backup drive. Nothing charging either. I have a 12vDC to 240 vAC wall transformer to charge the Kobo but it did top itself up while I was fiddling trying to load the books and knew it was plugged in to the computer okay. Not the Kobos fault.
The USB cable seems okay as I can use the same one for one of my cameras with no data loss occuring. It also has no hassles adding or subtracting pics to my digital photoframe which I use for art references when painting and that is a complete heap of junk! I tried both of these before posting here, just to check the USB cord. The cord is brand new, so hasn't been jammed in a draw or tripped over yet. (And, to save you some typing, I am aware that they can be new and faulty). I have a couple of new USB cords on their way from Hong Kong, but heavens knows when they will arrive as things I ordered are coming in dribs and drabs one or two items per parcel.
Live in the sticks, so can't just walk in to the local shop and buy a new USB cord with the micro fitting on one end.
Just remembered that the last thing I used to transfer from Calibre, was the neighbor's Kindle, which Calibre immediately recognised much to my astonishment. I wonder if it is still somehow stuck in Kindle mode and ignoring the Kobo? This was before the latest update though.
