I recently got a Kobo Aura One and I can't get the damn thing to connect to my computer (macbook, OSX High Sierra) over USB.

It did work once or twice at the beginning, but since then its never detected by my laptop. The Kobo shows the "computer detected" popup, I click "connect" and it shows "connected and charging". However, OSX cannot see it, Calibre cannot see it, it does not show up in System Information or Disk Utility.

My USB ports are fine. All other devices (bluetooth dongles, hard disks) work with the same USB ports. Tried two different working cables too.

I can't add any books to the frikkin thing without USB.. anyone know how to fix?

(To add insult to injury, it doesn't detect my 5Ghz Wifi, it detects but cannot connect to the 2.4 Ghz Wifi. So I have no way of connecting it to my computer.)
