I connected the device 4 times. No series info.

Ended up using the "update metadata in device library" and got the following result...(tired to post an image but need to host it somewhere) so here is the text.

Books Update=4
Unchanged Books =0
Books Not on Device=0
Total Books =4

Note: At the end of the first log I put a comment between two solid lines, then added another log of the "update metadata in device library" process. This caused the series info to appear.
I have had a look a the log and the following line tells me the problem:

Code:
DEBUG:   75.6 KoboTouch:books - prefs['manage_device_metadata']= manual
In the calibre preferences, on the "Sending books to devices page", you have the metadata management option set to "Manual management". With this set, the driver doesn't do the series info update or collection management on each connection. You should change this to the "Automatic management" for it to happen on each connection.

The above output looks fine and what usually happens if the driver doesn't do the series info updating, or you are updating other parts of the metadata.

For screenshots and other files, you can attach them directly to the post. The forum has storage and by attaching them, they are unlikely to go missing.
