Hi all,

So I was just given a Kobo Reader as a gift (it's used, no box, no manual), and I plugged it in to charge on my computer. However, it didn't show up on my computer as a device. I figured it was because it is charging.

However, now my Kobo is fully charged and is still not showing up. I've tried unplugging and replugging in the kobo; resetting the kobo; restarting my computer; restarting my kobo, etc. But no matter what I do, the kobo will not appear in devices.

Nor will it appear in my Kobo Desktop application. I hit "ereader setup" and it tells me to plug-in my kobo, despite it already being plugged in. I've tried unplugging and replugging it again, to no avail.

I'm at my wits end!
