I have a multiple library setup, which generally works well. (Thank you for this option as it has helped organise my life...) However there are some strange things happening when I quick change, or move/delete, on an irregular basis.
1. When selecting and transferring files to the Kobos, I sometimes use the "quick switch" library function moving multiple books from "fantasy" library, then changing to "sci-fi" library hoping to move multiples from there. However, only one book at a time will then transfer to the Kobos. If I try for another book, or use multiples, the first book will disappear, and be swapped for the next... Happens with both Kobo Glos.
Just to check what you are doing:
- Looking at the "fantasy" library and connect the Glo
- Send a book to the device
- Change to library "sci-fi"
- Send a book to the device with no problems
- Send a second book and it replaces the book just sent

Is that correct? If so, I have just done a quick test and don't see the problem.

Where are you looking to see that has happened? The file system of the Glo before ejecting, or on the Glo after ejecting and it processes the books?

Also:
2. When moving a book from the original library to another e.g. When I have read a book I transfer it to a "Read" library and delete the original, sometimes the book (.epub) disappears, or the cover, in the second library. I now have to go back and check each transfer.
Is it a Kobo issue, or a library issue? Please
I don't do many moves between libraries and haven't noticed a problem. But, I can't see how having the reader connected would affect this.
