Thanks for the quick reply. But I'm not sure how to install the beta version on my Mac. Can you tell me where I have to put the files.

To do a manual install of a plugin:
  1. Download the plugin file.
  2. Open calibre and then the main preferences.
  3. At the bottom, click on plugins.
  4. Click the "Load plugin from file" button.
  5. Find and select the downloaded plugin file and press OK.
  6. Answer yes or OK for the prompt about installing the plugin and the restart calibre.

Once calibre has restarted, I suggest you check the configuration before connecting the device. If there are any problems, delete the configuration file as I suggested above.

Yes, what davidfor said, and to make it even better he told me about it well ahead of time but life caught up and I just didn't quite get it ready in time. Today I finally got to finish it, but the forum won't let me upload it right now because I've edited too many posts too quickly. I'll upload it in the morning, as early as I can, but for now it's attached here.

Also, there are some translations still missing. If you fluently speak Brazilian Portuguese, Portuguese, Spanish, or German, there's still some strings at https://translations.launchpad.net/calibre-kobo-driver that need translating from English.

'KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED' object has no attribute 'upload_covers'

Hi

I installed this driver and I get the following error -

calibre, version 2.55.0
ERREUR : Erreur: Erreur pendant la communication avec le dispositif

'KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED' object has no attribute 'upload_covers'

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 87, in run
self.result = self.func(*self.args, **self.kwargs)
File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 533, in _sync_booklists
self.device.sync_booklists(booklists, end_session=False)
File "calibre_plugins.kobotouch_extended.device.driver" , line 357, in sync_booklists
AttributeError: 'KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED' object has no attribute 'upload_covers'

Thanks in advance!

[Edited]

ok reading previous posts I understand this is probably an incompatibility between the Ubuntu version of Calibre (2.55) and what is expected by the plugin.
Anyway switched back to the standard driver and retried to sync the metadata, it worked and this time I have my collection sync'ed on the device. That will be enough for me for now!

Thanks again to all Calibre contributors.

It looks like upgrading to 2.61 fixed this bug for me.

You didn't update the driver? That's what has the needed change.

Not sure what you mean. Upgrading the kobo extended driver broke things; it apparently has an unadvertised dependency on the calibre version.

Crap. Yup, didn't update the minimum calibre version. Fixes coming as soon as I get in front of my computer for a few minutes but that could be a good 8 hours or more from now.

v2.7.2 is up with the minimum calibre version set to 2.60.0. If, for some reason, you don't want to update, attached is the ZIP file for v2.6.2, which works with calibre 1.3.0 through 2.59.0.

In calibre v2.60, I have made major changes to the KoboTouch driver. These will be mainly visible in the configuration dialog. Unfortunately, these changes have broken the extended driver. I had discussed these changes with jgoguen and we had planned an updated to the driver. But, we have gotten the timing wrong. Kovid has been releasing calibre every two weeks recently, so I was expecting another week. But, the release timing is about having enough changes for it to be worthwhile, so I should have planned better.

Attached to this post a version of the extended driver that will work with calibre 2.60. It has the changes to make it work, but does not take full advantage of the changes in the configuration dialog. This will be here until jgoguen has a chance to make an official release.

Edit: There might be a problem with the driver configuration caused by using the incompatible versions. If you see an error opening the configuration of the extended driver after installing the attached version, please close calibre and delete the configuration file. This is in the calibre configuration directory and is called "device_drivers_KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED.py".
David is this issue causing the collections not being updated on the Kobo ereaders? I've been away for a few weeks and today sent a few books to both my Glo and H20 and only some populated collections. I've since realized nearly 200 books already on my H20 have been removed from their collections.

I've posted on the calibre devices sub forum before i saw this, but i don't know if they are connected.

Edited to say I've updated to 2.6.2 and updated the plugins and it's still a problem tonight.

If you saw an error similar to the one that was in the post above mine, and then delete the "device_drivers_KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED.py" file, then this is probably the problem. That file contains the configuration for the driver. Deleting it effectively set the configuration back t the defaults. You need to check the driver configuration matches what you want it to be.
