Can a player be connected to the computer, and then disconnected and reconnected again from software? Instead of physically plugging it in, ejecting, unplugging, then plugging it back in?

Windows 7, Kobo Libra.
You can eject the device, but, there is no way to that I have the device reconnect. You might be able to telnet to the device and issue a command to do a connect. I haven't tried this, but, I'm sure it has been mentioned in the Kobo developers forum.

The only other thing I have seen is a little device that sits between two USB cables and pressing the button disconnects the device. I have one and can use it to trigger the reconnect. But, it drops the voltage in the cable enough that at least one of my Kobo devices doesn't like it.
