I usually open calibre before connecting but trying both ways, I always get the error. I would think if something like antivirus was blocking, it would do it on both Claras. The 2nd one has no problems.

I didn't notice there was another device that did work. But, the antivirus might be seeing something different about the devices.

Just seemed odd to me that one can be accessed and the other is said to be malformed.

Yes, it is strange. Is the error you see when using calibre always the same? The first post shows an error getting the collections from the device. Is the last line in the error for file "site-packages\calibre\devices\kobo\driver.py" always the same?

Could you run the following SQL statement using SQLitedatabasebrowser? This accesses the table the line shown is querying.

select ShelfName
from ShelfContent
where _IsDeleted = 'false'
and ShelfName is not null

And then:

select ShelfName
from ShelfContent
where _IsDeleted = 'false'
and ShelfName is not null
order by ContentId

And can you run calibre in debug mode and post the log? That might tell me something. Such a is the error happening on the first book.

And would it be possible to see the database? Don't post it, upload it somewhere and PM me the link to it. It will be interesting to see if I can see anything going on with it.
