I spoke to Kobo tech and the only suggestion they had was to only ever use the Kobo desktop and ADE and try re-loading it with ADE---not drag and drop, not Calibre, only real, legitimate ADE. I am waiting for it to download now. They said it will be exchange-able if this doesn't work.

I had that issue recently. I had sent 4+ books to the device using Calibre. The files were on the device but it seemed to error out partway through and told me there were no books on the device. I powered off and on. My library was there but the new books were not.
I did two things one of which probably fixed it:
I did a windows scan disk and I also put another epub on the device. I don't know which triggered it but when I ejected the kobo it found the missing books. I suspect internally, the kobo thinks it already dealt with the files.
