If that's the case maybe it is the cable. I'll try a different one tonight or tomorrow.

Yeah I use the port frequently, and it's always worked. I also have my laptop plugged in, and I've been using it all day so it's not going into sleep mode. The Kobo does say "Connected and charged" but the computer does not recognize that its even attached - no notice when I plug it in, or when I choose "Connect" on the Kobo. As far as the computer is concerned it's not there.

It charged for a few hours and then the message changed to say "charged". Also, my laptop is my main PC, as I don't use a desktop any more. Normally I would use the plug in the wall with an adapter, but I wanted to transfer some files and I don't have a micro SD card.
