With two minor problems:
First calibre has not detected my hidden book file. So I must synchronise with a folder on my desktop (windows 7) and than synchronise this file with the folder in Kobo - but ok I can live with.
Do you know by chance (I know this belongs to calibre issues in first line, sorry) if there is a possibility to organize my books in genres - I have done that in Calibre and it works fine with my Android mobile via Calibre Companion, but is there a possibility with Kobo as well.
And second I was not able to adapt the Koreader to the size of my screen on every second page or so a line is missing or shown only partial
Sorry for this lengthly reply
Koreader has a number of ways to search and work with calibre, I tried to provide a short description of two of them here. They are WiFi methods. There is also the means to search the Metadata database that calibre maintains on the Kobo device. To have calibre send books to your hidden folder you use "Send to file", instead of send to device.

To select an "in-box" folder you long press the folder you want to use and answer the popup.

Not sure I understand your second issue, is that with PDFs?

Luck;
Ken
