Phoenix, the original post I made to you should have solved the "checking for books" issue. I was having the same problem you described with the Kobo Desktop getting stuck on Step 3 of 4--meaning I couldn't finish the setup--and the steps I posted here fixed it.

Try that again.

I know it can be frustrating--believe me--but as somebody that also uses lots of different technology and software I also know they all have their quirks and aggravations. I'm not being condescending, just trying to help.
