Are you making sure you properly eject your Kobo? Before I connect to the computer, I go to the home screen. I then connect. When I eject, I wait until I am back at the home screen after the importing is done (If I am adding books).
I didn't know most of this, so no - I haven't been careful about what screen the Kobo is on when I connect, though I do use the "eject device" function in Calibre and am careful to wait until that's completed and not just yank it off the cord.

Am downloading Kobo Utilities now.
