Nina, I had the same problem you described - on my Gen3 - and also out of the blue. As Harry said, I (for my part) messed with the unplugging.
Should mention, only the SD card was affected.
BUT i did not need to reformat it. I just ScandiscŽed the card and everything was fine again

Explanation to the problem:
Cybook saves your position in books and bookmarks in a seperate file besides the ebook, and your settings in the systems folder. Thus, it needs write access to the file system. And that is exactly what mine lost. Could not write on the card off my computer, too.

Reformatting the internal memory should fix it.
What leaves me to say, before you actually format the internal memory, make sure it is the one affected and not the card. Also, as described above, try using scandisc first. Formatting should be the last option if everything else fails.
