I got caught with the last update. The stupid reader would do nothing until I installed 3.19 whatever.

Where Kobo is torquing me off - I can't make it search for a specific book in the book list on the Glo.

I just ran into that nonsense with the Kepub and download, and want to check in the book list to see if book is there. Can't just check author, then letter b. I don't expect Calibre to deal with that. But is is annoying. It's also SLOOOW.

I got a list of everything on the main and card using windows. I can print out the list and check in Calibre one by one to see if books are physically in the memory.
Get the books that aren't in EPUB into EPUB, and put the file where Kobo can't find it.
Right now Kobo desktop is disabled. When I make sure I have all the books, I'll delete it, and delete account. Wifi disabled.

2 questions with Calibre - how do you get a print command to print the list of books?
That would be handy.

How do you edit the icons on the main page if Calibre? All the ones I want are on the 2nd row and that row doesn't stay open. I also don't maximize the screen, so have to try to mouse over the icon every time.
I'd love to remove reading list, share and a few other things that I never use.

I'm looking at the old Acer and an early version of FBReader - just the file tree which can be sorted by author, date, title. No marking things read or not, no other dumb tracking of pages read. Just files. The tablet is too big, and I don't like the reflective screen but I think I want to go back to Android. Not having Google would be a plus. You can use Amazon app store or Appmarket. I had a Coby that didn't have Google anything and it would work just fine for books.
