Libra Colour I fear my Kobo Libra Colour might be broken and I don't know how to fix it

It may be weird haha, but I like it that way.

Thank you though

Nothing weird about doing what you like as long as your Kobo consents...

Seriously, I have quite a few books with multiple authors and a Kobo ereader will only extract the first author from the ePub. calibre will populate all the authors when it sends metadata. I also send the page/word counts/approximate reading time/etc. which, again, need calibre to send metadata to an imported book.

As far as I am aware, NickelSeries only does series/series index and subtitle so unless your short blurb is in the subtitle field, you are not going to get anything from the book details using NickelSeries. The next time you connect to calibre, the metadata update will run in any event.

The only time I've found NickelSeries useful is when I use a wireless connection to send books. For the most part, that is only done on an experimental basis when I am having fun playing with my ereaders.
