The Mac mounted the card and the main memory the wrong way round. However, when I plugged in the Kobo it was complaining about needing to be charged. I will try again tomorrow when it's had a chance to charge overnight. After ejecting the Kobo via the Calibre device menu, I got a Mac error saying the SD_CARD was not ejected correctly. I did not get the Error communicating with device pop-up I previously saw.

OS X El Capitan version 10.11.6, Calibre 2.80

Would you like me to try with the card out of the slot?

READING LIST: Device disconnected
According to that log everything was OK. It has found the version file on the device, and it read the database. But, it didn't find the SD card. If it was seeing the SD card as the main memory, it wouldn't find the database at all. But, you seem to be saying only the books on the SD card are showing as on the device. Is that correct?

What are the paths or mount points or whatever that the MAC is using for the main memory and the card?
