userguide.pdf not UserGuide.pdf (or any other original filename you downloaded)

If all else fails try a full reboot after you've copied it to the right place

P.S. Don't put your books in \.kobo Create a new subdirectory, e.g. \Books (can be anything you like) in the root of the attached drive.
Everything was correct except for capital letters in the name of the pdf, so I've changed these. Other Resources is still just giving a link to kobo.com.

I've been reading through an old text file in which I kept cut-and-paste notes from MR from when I bought a Kobo Mini for a friend of mine and wanted to put books on it. According to that, you can put books into any folder whose name isn't preceded by a dot. I don't know if this is still the case.

I wondered if my usb port was okay, but have successfully loaded a book onto one of my kindles.

How do I fully reboot the Kobo? Is this the same as a Factory Reset?
Thanks.
