Today for the the first time in a very long time I opened my Kobo Desktop app and it synced a whole heap of books. I noticed several had a pink triangle with stars across the corner of the books cover and so I clicked on one to see what it meant. A box popped up prompting me to either buy the book or I could start reading the preview now. What? I have already bought the books. When I go onto the Kobo website and look in my library there, it shows I have purchased the books.
Whats up with that? How come the website shows I bought the books, I was able to download the full books through ADE but the desktop shows I only have a preview sample?
Does anyone know why this has happened?
HHmmm... something weird is going on. Now I cant open a single book through the app, every one says "Content Locked, We are unable to display the selected content. It may be locked or corrupt."

I had this happen as well after doing the same as you, come to find out that when the Adobe password hack scandal occurred and I changed my Adobe ADE password, it started doing it. I discovered that what I had to do was re-authorize my Kobo with adobe ADE.
Here's what I did. Open ADE on your pc, connect the Kobo to the pc.
Then press Ctrl,Shift, E. You should get a box asking of you want to deauthorize, select yes. I then made sure that I had the latest version of the Kobo Desktop App. Then unplug your Kobo from the computer, and plug it in again. Now you should get a box saying that a new device has been detected and you can authorize it. Once I did that I resynched the desktop app and all the books that I couldn't open before worked fine.
