Books on Overdrive vanished after signing in to another account
I have several Overdrive accounts. Actually, I've only been using one account, until a few days ago I tried to switch to another account. Though Kobo stated that the books I borrow from Overdrive will still be there until they expire, all my Overdrive books were recorded as previews and could not be read on the other account. When I switched back to my usual account, the books were back. Would anyone know if I have done something wrong? Thanks!

Sounds like it is working as expected? You can only read the ebooks (that have DRM) when you are logged into the appropriate account.

Also, as far as "vanishing", if you aren't reading online then the ebooks are still on your hard drive.
