Thank you.

At a wild eyed guess, your database has been corrupted.
When you run the "check device database" option, what does it return?
You might want to check the Kobo Utilities thread in the Calibre/GUI Plugins area;
Here's a link near the end of the thread where some database issues were being discussed:

In theory, you can repair some corruption in an SQLite database but it is often easier and faster to recreate the database. For a Kobo ereader, logging out of your account is one way of doing a database rebuild. You will lose quite a bit of information such as reading position.
