I'm talking about when the device is connected. Some books that I can read and access just fine just do not show up in Calibre.

It's strange because the file is just there, and not set to read-only. It's last-modified date even corresponds to current time, but a book I just added 10 minutes ago simply just doesn't show up on Calibre, until I do a restart of the entire Kobo.
