Hi -

I recently had a similar issue. One library that I check ebooks out of recently started carrying them in a different format than the library I normally check books out of. One is DRM'd PDF files and one is Epub. For some reason, those file types don't play nicely on the PRS505. You can only have one type of file on the device at a time. So, now I know that if I am checking out books that I have to load books to the device from one library at a time, or else risk not having files that will peacefully coexist on my reader.

Just a thought for you since you said you tried all the troubleshooting advice already.
