Thanks for your quick and clear response.

And thanks for tolerating and interpreting my many embarrassing typos. I wrote those posts while half-asleep and it shows!

I was trying to explain the source of my confusion. I had no idea there was supposed to be an Obok icon in the Calibre interface. The instructions weren't clear on this point. And Calibre didn't prompt me to add it to the toolbar after I installed the plugin. Consequently, I assumed you'd add Kobo books to Calibre the same way you'd add any other book on your hard drive -- by using the "Add" button.

As you might have guessed, with Amazon ending download-and-transfer I'm looking for another source for ebook purchases. I figure I'll try the Kobo store.

On a side note, years ago I experiment with purchasing Kobo books. Back then I had a problem with Amazon rejecting the Kobo books because they weren't properly formatted. I believe it was you who helped me figure that out and modify the Kobo epubs to encode them with UTF-8. Thanks for that as well.
