Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum and unfortunately I need help handling my Kobo Aura. First, let me apologize for the mistaskes I'm about to make, I'm belgian and my first language is french.

So here's the deal : I've just bought a Kobo Aura to start feeling the joy of reading on a e-reader. The screen asks me to charge the ereader "The battery is low: 0% remaining. To recharge your redaer, connect it to a power source.", which is normal I guess since it's the first time I use it.
I did plug it into my computer and nothing happened, no light, absolutely nothing. I tried the move on another computer, same result.
I don't have any AC adapter, so only USB via PC.

Remark : my mom, who owns a kindle, has got no problem charging it on the same PC, it recognizes the kindle perfectly.

What can I do ? Any advice?

Thanks in advance.
