I'm trying to upgrade from a Kobo Aura to an Aura One, migrating all the books and reading positions over, and I can't seem to get it to work.
I set up Kobo Utilities when I first got the Aura, and it appears that everything was correct - the reading position was saved every time I connected etc. So I'd hoped it would all work properly with the Aura One too. But I copied over a couple of half-read books to test and they appeared as unread on the Aura One.
Searching around and trying various things, I've now got this far:
I copy some books to the Aura One from Calibre.
Disconnect the Aura One and let it update the database.
Reconnect, select the books in Calibre and use Store\Restore Current Bookmark.
Disconnect again.
That sets the books as Unread\percentage read\Completed on the Aura One's library list but, if I try to read any book, it starts from the beginning.
I've checked and, as far as I can see, the Current Reading Location column is correctly set up - it's listed as type "Text, column shown in the Tag browser" and, if I display it, it's full of data.
Is there anything else that I could have missed when I set this up, which would stop this working? Both of the Kobos are set to the latest firmware, and Calibre is up to date.
Apologies if this has been covered before, I did have a good look through the thread but couldn't find anything that solved it.
