Updated calibre just now, still broken

The rather slower "Annotations" plugin, which is more awkard for my work flow nearly works. The last few annotations are not copied.

Actually all the annotations are copied. Mysteriously the Kobo H20 Original hasn't stored the last one or two annotations.

This is the same problem you reported a while ago in the Kobo Utilities plugin thread. It is actually a bug in the KoboTouch driver and I haven't had chance to look at it.

Edit: Just realised I had looked at it but couldn't reproduce it.

Curious the Annotations plugin doesn't suffer from it.
I thought it had gone away.
It's maybe something that gets corrupt in the Kobo as it's not every book, but once it happens it only goes away when a fresh version is annotated.

Too early this morning, it was 4am approx and I thought I was maybe posting this in the wrong place.

The kobo & Calibre files are gone now, replaced by a new edit of the eBook (less than 3 hrs which is good for me).

Why should the Annotations plugin suffer from a bug in a code base it shares absolutely nothing with? And it going away was probably because you deleted the annotation that was causing the problem. You might not have explicitly deleted the annotation, but if you deleted the book, the device would have deleted all of the annotations for it.
