but my 1st try with CC was before I realised hat I needed to enable the connection in calibre so maybe that confused things.
my PCs are all set to "home" network, in the Win 7 network choices.
woudl you neormally expct calibre to need a restart at some poit in the process or should it just work without a restaert as soon as you enable the conenct options ?
but hey it works now, I fured content server - its just disconent from wireless devie, connect to content servier instead.
then once the book is on the KF, I open the kobo app & import.
I am now tring to find why the Kobo app also sees various other odd books to import, probably left overs from dabbling with other reading apps, but they are a pain to find & remove on the tablet when you don't know where they are stored. . so I now have it connected to PC & am using windows to tidy up files & foldes that way.

For those running Windows 8 and above, the fix for network location is pretty simple -- PowerShell has the Set-NetConnectionProfile cmdlet. A lot simpler than trying to poke around in the GUI to find and force it to private. Exact steps are on my
Blog. It says Windows 8.1, but I've verified it works in 8.0 as well. Sorry, it doesn't work in Vista or Win7, the cmdlet hadn't been added yet.
