Thank you - It seems to be resolved.

I took following steps last night after browsing for information through the forum - similar to what you both advised, thanks !

Login out of Kobo account on device and back in had the side-effect that Kobo now needed a wifi connection for the setup and then happily updated its firmware (last time I had it connected to wifi was early 2015)

Anyway, I now turned off automatic sync, deleted the wifi data. Plenty crap on my home-screen which I will remove (I did it earlier, will find again out to do it)

Last night after the device completed its setup, all shelves seemed to be there, but most were showing empty.. and I'm not sure all books were properly accounted for.
This morning, I hooked the Kobo up to the computer, and Calibre ran through its routine without any error.

I then did (not sure if that helped) a "Update cached metadata on device".

Now, it looks like all shelves are populated, back in business !

Thanks
Jonny
