Ok. So I have been trying to upload books to my Kobo.

I've tried copying my books over manually, copying my folder full of books via file browser to the Kobo, over the USB cable.

It only ended up picking up and showing that there were just over 2,000 books on there, instead of the 3,400 or so I tried copying over. The files were PHYSICALLY on the Kobo (via file browser), but it wouldn't pull them up on the Kobo itself. All in mobi or epub format.

Looking at it via Calibre didn't fix the problem.

So I tried using Calibre to do the actual copying of the files over to the Kobo, and it will only copy a few books at a time before CALIBRE crashes. And it's a random number of books - I've copied hundreds, I've copied less than 50 at a time - and Calibre would crash.

Also - if it crashes while copying books over, those books won't show up on the kobo.

Any ideas?
