Update: Ah, I followed some advice online, but it was wrong. Dumping the kobo-update-4.4.9298 folder into .kobo will do nothing. Dumping the *contents* of kobo-update-4.4.9298 into .kobo does the trick. I'll leave this post here just in case some other Mac user runs into the same problem.
Glad you solved your issue on your own. Thanks for sharing! The instructions can be confusing for Mac users because they are written from a Windows perspective. The way Mac OS downloads zip files and automatically opens them to a new folder with the update name means it's confusing whether you are supposed to copy the whole folder over or all the files inside the folder. I understand what you are saying because I also use a Mac and I had to think twice about it myself.
