I should probably point out that I've done some patching and the NM/Plato/KOReader one step installation.

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: 160.
Device firmware version: (4, 22, 15190)

I did check "Attempt to support newer firmware" and am not having any problems as far as I can see.
Read the message again and think about it. Did your device update recently? Is there any discussion about this fact elsewhere that might give you a clue about what is happening?

Yes, there is some sarcasm in that as I'm tired of how little people attention people pay to this. Especially from someone who is active in the forums where this has been discussed many, many times.
