I checked out some books from Overdrive yesterday. I can't retrieve them directly on my Kobo libra because it's a different library than my normal one. In the past I've been able to go through Adobe and transfer them to the Kobo that way. I went through the whole transition thing and have now connected my old Adobe account to the new Bytebooks.

But if I try to send a book (in ADE) to the Kobo it says I don't have permission, even though I have reauthorized both the computer and the Kobo in ADE. So I tried in Calibre after reading this, have the ACSM plugin on it, sent the books over but when I try to open them on the Kobo it says I don't have permission. Also, neither of them were imported with covers and when I had Calibre search for covers it could not find them, even though both books were published in the last 10 years. I downloaded covers manually from Goodreads and applied them in Calibre, then re-sent the books but the covers are still not showing. But I can't open them anyway so covers don't matter.

Have I missed a step somewhere? To import into calibre (latest edition) I added both the epub file and the acsm file in case it needed both. But only transferred the epub file onto the Kobo. Does it need the acsm file separately transferred as well? I don't recall having to do that in the past using ADE.

The ADE I'm using is their latest one; I had the old one but lost it in a hard drive reformat and since I saw they were moving to Bytebooks I didn't try finding the old one.
