Hello,

in my understanding all the bookmarks and comments I created on my Kobo Glo are stored in the SQlite DB (.kobo/KoboReader.sqlite) on the device.
Some time ago, a firmware update of my Glo made it hang, so I had to reset it.
Now the DB got replaced by a fresh copy. No problem to get my books back in (from Calibre), but now all the bookmarks and comments are gone ;-(

I have a backup-copy of the DB file on the HD of my computer. But just replacing the DB on the device, by the one from the HD doesn't work.
(Version differences ?)

Has anybody found a way to get the information over ?

Regards

Martin

P.S.:
I'll post my finding so far on a reply in this thread and I try to add more stuff as I find it.
Nevertheless I still appreciate a complete solution form somebody... ;-)
