Device: Kobo Aura H2O II
No books shown of Kobo H2OII-error
When I connect to my device Calibre recognizes the Kobo. But does not show the books which are on the device. I get an error:

calibre, version 5.2.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

CorruptError: database disk image is malformed

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/gui2/device.py", line 89, in run
File "calibre/gui2/device.py", line 512, in _books
File "calibre/devices/kobo/driver.py", line 1965, in books
apsw.CorruptError: CorruptError: database disk image is malformed

Do I have to hard reboot my Kobo? (or go back to factory settings?)

Help is appreciated

regards

Rob

You need to Log the Kobo OFF, then Log back on. The Devicewill rebuild its db

OTOH if yo use Kobo Utilities, you may hav set it to backup the DB (assumes you have not tried so many times, the copies are now bad)

Just be aware that logging out will remove all content synced by the device from the Kobo store including any borrowed library books. Side loaded content will remain on the device. You will also loose any pocket data
