There does not seem to be a setting in the Clara overdrive menu to access the library holds. I know the book needs to be available on the kobo site and it is. I have tried adding Adobe digital to my laptop and have been able to download the acsm file and retrieve the book into Adobe. When I try to transfer from Adobe to the Clara the book shows on device. Even though I have activated the Clara from Adobe I get an error message when I try to open the book on Clara.

Tried uninstalls of Adobe, deleting and reloads of the acsm file

I have also tried using the older version of Adobe but couldn't load the acsm file in it.

Any suggestions I haven't tried?

Thanks in advance, and looks like a great forum!
How did you set up the Clara's connection to your library? When you tap on Settings => Overdrive, do you see an account configured there? There should be no need for ADE or downloading ACSM files unless you run into the case where the book in your library collection and the book on Kobo's site are not the same edition (easiest check when a book does not sync to your Clara is to see if the ISBNs are identical, if not, ADE time).

As for transferring books from ADE not working, do the email addresses for ADE's authorization and your Clara's authorization match? Settings => Accounts for the address for your Clara, Help => Authorization Information for ADE.
