Nope. I read it on this kobo before. I'm only trying to sync because I figured if anything worked it should.

Tried Calibre but it doesn't show it on the device. I eject and go into the Kobo and it's not in the library. On the home screen their is an icon of a black book (along with Quick Toor and Kobo Read On) that if I click on the device freezes then reboots. The book I tried to load was originally in mobi (which should work) but I converted to epub and deleted the mobi version.

Ok using Calibre and not setting up the Kobo with the desktop, I right-click on a book and choose send to device. I click on the device icon and I see it there. I did this with 3 books and see all three on the device. They're by the same author so when I open the Kobo to see all the files I see all three books in their own folder named after the author. All three are in epub format.

I eject the device and remove the usb cord. On the kobo I X out of the setup again and I'm on the home screen. It shows three "books". The quick tour, kobo read on, and the blank black one. Under Home/Library it shows only the first two books. No where are the three I tried to move to the device.

Now what??
BTW thanks for your help. You're doing a lot more then Kobo tried.
