My Glowlight 3 needs to be awake, and I need to "turn on" USB mode before it will appear on my Windows desktop.

I would be interested to hear if anyone else has experienced problems bulk sideloading epubs, and what is the cut-off number, if any.

Thanks,

The Glowlight 3 runs on Android 4.4.2, so yes, it is an Android device. (I've installed Instapaper on it, and a few other apps.) I haven't tried adding 600 ePubs at once, but even with 100, I found that I needed to restart my Nook for it to find the new ePubs - and even at that, it took a little time. Perhaps the Glowlight 3 also indexes the new ePubs? If so, that would add to the time. Once the ePubs are finally visible in the Nook Library, the Nook reader works well.
