Question Library books not displaying on Kobo Libre

I get email notifications that a book I have a hold on is ready to be borrowed. Usually I check my emails from my phone. I'll follow the link to the holds section and borrow them right then; however, sometimes when I start my Libre the books I've checked out don't show up. I'll go to my holds & they'll show up there, but they're still on hold & there is no option to borrow the book from there. When I get back on my phone & look at my Clevnet account it shows they are checked out.

Where do I go from here? How do I get my Libre to sync up so the books I've checked out are displayed? I also haven't figured out how to get my previously owned books onto the Libre either. When I run Calibre & plug in the ereader the device never shows up within Calibre.

What version of Calibre do you use? Does your computer recognize the Libra?

Have you synced your Kobo?

Assuming you are using Overdrive, try this:
1. Sync your kobo
2. Restart the kobo
3. Sync again

I don't use Calibre, so can't help with that.

Does the Libra 2 show as a removable drive? If your computer does not detect and mount the Libra 2, calibre will not be able to see it.

Did you try signing out of Overdrive on your Kobo, then signing back in? That helped me in the past when there were odd sync issues.
