Yes. In fact, my problem surfaced within the last few days. I had been using the wonderful Libby app, setting up my Overdrive account with both of the libraries I have cards for. I could search and find a book, then put a hold on it, and when it became available, it would immediately appear when I synced the Kobo.
But the last three books in a row failed to do this. Libby would tell me the books were available, and in each case I got an email from the library telling me so. But suddenly there was no Kobo sync, and I wound up downloading to my Oasis 2 instead and reading the books there. This all happened within the past week.
I wrote to support at Libby about this and was told that the best way to proceed would be to find the book from within the Kobo, searching Overdrive there and setting up the loan or hold from within the device. This has worked without problem, but I like the convenience of using Libby. And it seems odd to me that after working flawlessly for weeks, it suddenly stopped. I do understand that some books aren't available in the library in the same version that Kobo has them, but I'm wondering if something else isn't going on. Perhaps some software tinkering at the Overdrive end? Still curious.
