Plugin your Kobo device. It should now mount without issue and show up on the Kobo app.
Launch Calibre.
It should recognize your Kobo device.
Jon: There is absolutely no reason that those instructions would work. The desktop application is not needed and doesn't install anything that will change the way that Windows access the device. The only thing it might do is to download a firmware update to the device. If there isn't one available, nothing will be done.

Of course, as the desktop application isn't working with the Anniversary update, there is no way to get it to do anything for a device that is connected.
