I have calibre(latest version) and koboutilities(latest version).
In the thread about koboutilities it mentions backing up reading position as an option on the main drop down but I can't find it there.
I've tried using custom columns and setting one for percent read, then under koboutilities I see a set of 4 drop downs Current Reading Location Column, Percent read column etc. I can set reading position column to one(I use #readingposition).
EDIT: I got percentread to load as a column type integers, but there's no info loading into calibre for it, even though I have many finished or reading books on my Aura.

When I look up step by step guides from people doing it, they used a template with a bunch of extra data in it as part of creating a read/reading column, yet I can't find anywhere to paste the template data.
Is there a simple way to do this? I'd prefer to use Koboutilities but can't see why it isn't working
I'm having to wipe my reader because it's failing to update any new added books, which I didn't catch for a while, so something I've added before is causing it to fail, resulting in the books being loaded to the memory on the Aura HD, and Calibre seeing them but me being unable to read them.
I just want to be able to note the books I've already read, and how far along I am on the Aura HD into Calibre.
Thanks
