The Aura says "Processing" and gets to 6% before going straight to the Home page.
That is odd. I've never had a problem using KindleUnpack to go from AZW3 > ePub. I use epubcheck 3.0.1 to check for any technical errors, fix them and then the ePub is valid. But one thing I do is all the extra meta tags in the OPF that are leftover from the AZW3 I do delete them. Maybe the Kobo doesn't like them if you've left them in.
