Kobo also changed books that I had bought 2 years ago that were on the reader (I back up elsewhere) Books were paid for.

The last 2 straws - message from Kobo on tablet - "Kobo will manage the external card"
and the latest - "you must have a wifi connection". I deleted the password for wifi. Kobo can no longer turn wifi on at will.

@MickiT
I will have to do the same and will have to list in Libre Office version of Excel to get the all the books as I have got many from Gutenberg and Smashwords and they are just under date and in different files on Windows, Android and Linux
I'm going to be a bit rude here.

There's a thread in the calibre forum where Alpha o is complaining about a lot of things that Kobo does. The only thing the thread demonstrated is that Alpha o was not interested in actually reading responses acting on them. The issues mentioned in the thread have absolutely nothing to do with the My Library list. And to comment on the points raised here:

- calibre could see the books (the screen shots actually showed this)
- Kobo made no changes to those purchased books
- There is a message about the Kobo device using the card, but it is not "managing the card".
- No, you do not need a WiFi connection if you don't want one.
- I'm far to lazy to maintain a spreadsheet when I can just drop the books into calibre.

And Alpha o, no, I am not stalking you. But, if you post incorrect claims like this, I will correct you when I see them.
