Hi, not having found this thread when I searched for information, I started another thread on a similar question, but not exactly identical:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=349793

Here I see that Davidfor suggests "other methods" for solving a similar problem of moving books from the device to the library. In my case I also wish to move the book to another Kobo which has a different account, something which I have not been able to do as, perhaps, this book, which I bought from a bookshop in another country, seems to be encrypted.

Although my version of Calibre has all of the "usual tools", I cannot copy this book to my Calibre library so as to be able to put it on another KObo that I use more frequently.

So I am wondering if Davidfor's "other methods" might help me?

To be quite clear, I am talking about a book that I paid for and which I wish simply to move from one device to another without having to change the account on my preferred Kobo as changing the account requires reconfiguring
certain elements which I am reluctant to do.

Thanks for any advice!
