So I was wondering how I can get this to work again? Reset to factory settings? |
The database on your Kobo is corrupt. You could restore the last good database Kobo Utilities backed up or you could log out and log back in to fix the database. But with the second method, you'd have to reinstall all of your eBooks. With the first method, you'd have to reinstall all of the eBooks you've installed since then and delete all you've deleted since then.
I use the Reading list plugin to keep track of what's on my H2O. It can automatically set or unset a custom field to let you know what eBooks you have on your device.
