Are you getting the same error on the Kobo Glo as the Sony? If not, you what is it?
The error makes me think the device has been mounted read-only. Can you write to it from Windows? Or delete a file on it? If it is read-only, then you need to find out why. Restarting the device would be the first thing that I would try.

Thanks so much for your help. Simply restarting the Sony PRS T3 fixed all problems; I was able to connect the reader to calibre, did not get any error message, and was able to download an ebook from calibre without any problems.
It wasn't as complete an improvement with the Kobo glo. When I attached it to calibre after restarting the read I got the following error message:
'Your Kobo is running an updated firmware/database version. As calibre does not know about this updated firmware, database editing is disabled, to prevent corruption. You can still send books to your Kobo with calibre, but deleting books and managing collections is disabled. If you are willing to experiment and know how to reset your Kobo to Factory defaults, you can override this check by right clicking the device icon in calibre and selecting "Configure this device" and then the "Attempt to support newer firmware" option. Doing so may require you to perform a factory reset of your Kobo.
Device database version: 152.
Device firmware version: (4, 14, 12777)'
I followed these instructions (I didn't see any requirement to do a factory reset) and was able to download an ebook from calibre on to the Kobo. And I can read that ebook and the others already on the reader.
So I'm a lot happier than I was a few days ago. I guess the real test for both readers will be in a day or so when I when I try to upload or download ebooks from calibre again.
