Quite by accident, I seem to have found a resolution for the Aura not finding my SD card. Hurrah!!!

I am not the most patient person, so when I push the On button, I expect whatever I'm turning on, to turn on. That may not be the case with the Kobo.

The other day, for some silly reason, I was watching the little light that comes on when you push the On button on the Aura. I held the button longer than I normally do and I noticed that the little light flickered. It reminded me of the traffic lights that flicker just before they change colors. Anyway, this time, the Aura didn't have a problem finding the SD card. Later that day, I turned it on again and this time, I intentionally waited to turn loose of the button until after the light flickered. Again, it found the SD card and worked fine.
In the last three days, I've had the occasion to turn it on eleven different times, and each time I've waited until after the light flickered to turn loose of the button. And each of those eleven times I have not had a problem with it finding the SD card.

It's only a guess that it only looks for the SD card right around the time the light flickers and anything before that, it won't find the card. Just a guess.
So far, my problem seems to have stopped being an issue.
I hope this helps someone else.
