That made me laugh, albeit slightly hysterically, for about 5 minutes straight! Another PEBCAK issue ...

If you have downloaded and sideloaded a book, calibre will show that you have two copies on the device when you connect. Selecting these and clicking the delete button and then the on device button, will show a list of the books. Uncheck the version you want to keep on the device.
Yeah, I found that bit easy enough to do - some of the books had auto-matched to the library, which was nice, and the rest I had to do manually. It also threw up some books that I thought I had previously removed from my Kobo library but were actually still present. Anyway, everything now matches, except for the book count on the new home page on my H2O; it's showing 4 more books than are actually present (looking in the settings shows the right number of downloaded + side loaded books, and no previews). I'll bug Kobo about that directly via Twitter, though.

Been there, done that, muttered something under my breath when I realised why it didn't work
I'm glad it's not just me; I think I had previously worked that out, but somehow my mind had blanked it out completely! Ah well, live and learn!
