new kobo glo

alexandra7 · 12-20-2012, 11:27 PM

Hi everyone!
I just purchased new kobo glo and I have a problem.
When I open the book it's mark straight away as finished and I can't even start to read the book.
How I can mark it as not finished or re-read the book in a future?
PLEASE HELP!
Thanks!

I have seen that on two occasions. One was a corrupt book. I had to redownload the book to fix this. The other time is with some mobi books. While the Glo can read mobi books, some don't work well. The solution was to convert the book to ePub format.

When this is sorted out, opening a finished book is the same as opening any other: find it in the list, press on it and it will open at the start.

I just experienced the same thing you mentioned. I fixed it by going to settings and marking the book as finished and then opening it to read. What was happening before that Was the book Would open I could read it but then when it went to sleep the book would be lost from the current read list and the other book I was reading was showing as cover and in the current read list. Now all is good, not sure why this was the case but it is interesting that we both have seen it. Btw I have firmware 2.3.1 on the glo. At any rate hope that helps.

Regards

Jack

Can you just move the page number slider all the way to the left to start over again?
