@davidfor: I just did a Dropbox test-run on mine, feel free to PM me if you have something specific in mind to check out .

@all: You'll need to do a full sync on your Forma before the "My Dropbox" entry pops up in the hamburger menu. Smooth sailing after that .

I just updated to the latest firmware and now Calibre is reporting "Error communicaating with device"

Details:

calibre, version 3.48.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

'list' object has no attribute 'set_debugging_title'

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 90, in run
File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/device.py", line 543, in _sync_booklists

File "site-packages/calibre/devices/kobo/driver.py", line 2387, in update_device_database_collections
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'set_debugging_title'

Can I fix this somehow?

The problem is that the database is corrupt. Do you use Kobo Utilities to backup your database? If you do, copy the last backup over the corrupt database in .kobo on your Kobo.

If you don't have a backup of your database, you'll need to log out of your Kobo and log back in in order to rebuild the database.

Your welcome. You'll be OK either way. The only thing is that if you need to rebuild the database, you'll lose your reading stats.

If you are not using Kobo Utilities, I suggest you install it in Calibre and set it up to backup your database when you connect to Calibre. If you do install Kobo Utilities, I suggest reading the full thread on it in the Calibre Plugins forum.

Did you use the patch to increase the sleep/shutdown time?

Yep, I have that running. The problem is that No-IP wants me to pay for their services and doesn’t email me anymore when the free 30 days is up. I’ll have to set a reminder.

Finally got the updated firmware. Had to switch affiliate from Kobo to beta to get it.

I'm enjoying the progress bar. Very unobtrusive.

And when you call up the menu, the time no longer changes to percent read after a few seconds! That's a little thing, but it makes me happy!

About the new DropBox feature...

The only reason I would use DropBox with my Kobo, if it was a way to remember where I am in a book and continue my reading on my phone, for example, like the Kindle does.

Other than that, I prefer to use Calibre, since I convert on the fly all my ePub to KePub.
