Exclamation Kobo Says "Computer Detected" When Plugged Into Wall Outlet
Hello marvellous MobileRead people!

When plugged into the wall outlet using a USB Power adapter, the Mini displays a message saying "Computer Detected" although it is not connected to a computer.

If I click either "Connect" or "Cancel", nothing at all happens.

I use a 12W USB Power Adapter which came originally with my iPhone.

Any ideas?

That is not unusual. It depends on the USB power adapter. Some work in such a way that the device will think a PC is connected. Just ignore it.
