Hi Robko, thanks for helping as well. If Davidfor had explained what the account has to do with the entire database as you just did (not only to the books belonging to the account), his instructions would have been more logical and clearer. I have signed out and back in and it has fixed the issue for 2 of the 3 books I was reading. The other one now is stuck at 0% no matter what I do. I guess it might have to do with the book, and will try to find another version to confirm.

I have never said that my understanding of the Kobo database is high or better than Davidfor's, I only pointed out that he assumed (as he admitted) that I know nothing and haven't even thought that it could be the database (which is not true: I'm not an expert, but I do know more than what Davidfor thought, and I have no problem in saying so, and that's why I came to the forums, otherwise I would have solved the problem on my own and give everybody here a solution).
