Yeah I've done that, as well as removed and reformated the card in fat32, works if I also set factory reset,it works with no annoying messages at least for a brief time.

It get stucks, no errror message but when it's been transferring a batch of mabye 200 books for hours hours without anything changing and it informs me that you can't disrupt a job which is communicating with the device. So the only solution is shutting down calibre, and since it refuses to be removed from the computer I have to shut the computer down completely and then pull the usb cable

Annotations are store in the database on the device. But, I don't think that is what you want to know. I think you actually want to know how to view them later. There are three ways:

- The current book tile on the home screen has the count of bookmarks, annotations and saved highlights. Pressing that displays the annotations list.
- Within the book, when the bottom menu bar is displayed, tap the three lines on the right end. This displays a menu with "Annotations" as an item.
- In the library list, find the book and long press on it. This displays a menu with "Annotations" as an item.

Is that what you want?
I am running 3.12.0 but the problem is very persistent and very annnoying. And no, I just want a list of the books (or even the bookmarks) I've bookmarked. On the Sony you had a separate column or folder or something which stored all your bookmarks. I like to bookmark book and page so I can find it easily even some time has passed and it is certainly not on the front page with the tiles. I just find the lack of easy access to bookmarks a curious oversight by the Kobo developers and was hoping someone had figured out solution.

Great thanks for taking the time to reply and help me with some possible solution.
