Sometimes a MacBook reboot or a Kobo reboot would work and sometimes not. Today nothing worked and in desperation I tried using an OTG cable I had for my Samsung phone and Calibre instantly connected with the Kobo. How long this will last I do not know but it is the only solution that has worked for me, at least for today.
This was super advice. I was getting so frustrated I was going to send it back and use an Oasis, despite wanting the larger screen. I don't know I ever would have guessed to try this. Thank you.
