So, when you navigate to the .kobo directory, that is with the KT plugged in to your PC, right? Otherwise you would not see it?
On a Mac, Finder = Explorer window, and when the KT is plugged in, the contents of the KT are shown when you select the Kobo Touch device in Finder. I thought I did copy the right files over, but it didn't seem to change anything. I will try this on my Windows Vista machine at work, and see what happens. Thanks Peter and Murg.

SUGOI! It worked this time, using Windows Explorer on the pc. I could actually see all the folders on the KT (somehow I missed seeing .kobo on the Mac in Finder). Now I have .19 installed, with the shortlist carousel and the clock! Perfect.
