Not to worry... This just says the other devices work as expected 
USB connectivity is a Pair of ports, Computer and Device. It only take 1 not playing by all the rules to mess it up.
You might follow the steps above https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=118560 and post (inside spoilers please) just like your Kobo was NOT detected. Maybe the driver gurus will spot something they did not anticipate  |
Ok, I'm going to keep trying different things to see if I can narrow this down.
I plugged Kobo in, and let window open.
I did NOT open Calibre, I wanted to see if I was able to load books directly to Kobo drive that way. Worked beautifully...
So, does that mean it is communication between Calibre and Kobo? Or should I pursue trying this USB thing? Or both?
Peter, I will do some reading based on the information you provided.
theducks, Peter, thank you again so much for being so patient and helpful. I don't know very much about "hardware" things, that's my husbands job! I like to tinker with programs for audio/video etc. So I really appreciate your patience. I like to learn more about the hardware stuff only when I need to.
I also just tried using one of the USB ports in the back, same error. I also tried using a USB 2.0 hub that we use to charge PS3 controllers, same error. So I AM going to post in the thread about Calibre not reading devices. I'll let you guys know what happens.
Thank you again.
