There is occasionally something else happening. Occasionally, the wrong cover gets attached to a book as the sleep cover and nothing seems to fix it. Quote:
Don't worry about the size of the log. The important thing is it shows what is happening. And it does show an error. This shouldn't cause the loss of the reading status, but I'll have a look at it. And I do have a couple of comments from the debug log. Near the top is: Code:
DEBUG: 0.0 [u'#genre,#allbooks,series,Im_Reading, Read, Closed, Shortlist', True, True, False, False, True, False, False, False, False, False, u''] - '#genre,#allbooks,series,Im_Reading, Read, Closed, Shortlist' is the list of columns to use when creating shelves on the device. The names with the "#" in front of them are custom columns that you added. The names without the "#" are standard columns in calibre. None of "Im_Reading, Read, Closed, Shortlist" exist as columns in calibre. If you created custom columns with those names, add the "#" to the names. As they are, they don't do anything. - The "True" and "False" are for the check boxes. The third "True" is for "Always upload covers". But, this only does something if "Upload covers for books" is also checked. I have meant to change this, but have not gotten around to it. Also, when looking at the logs, I get a view on what people are reading. And sometimes a scare. While I was quickly scrolling through your log, "Bay City" flashed past. My brain added "Rollers". All that tartan, very scary Last edited by davidfor; 01-21-2013 at 12:23 AM. Reason: cut and paste error |

I don't need ,Im_Reading, Read, Closed, Shortlist' and I had removed #allbooks before sending the books so not sure why it is there. maybe it is time to reboot. I do know for sure that the read status was gone as I checked it on calibre as well as on reader. Glad it is back. I was flipping between books to see if the covers stayed consistent. They didn't, but eventually they seem to appear. One thing I noticed is that the read status remained unread in the book list until the correct covers appeared although usually the %read on the sleep screen was correct and they always opened at the correct page. BTW I forgot to say earlier that I have never had the multiple shelves problem. I rarely use the Kobo software. Again thanks for the help and the info. Helen . |

I think that post you linked to is from the OLD OLD Kobo Touch drivers

Never bothered to remove them as I foolishly thought they might be necessary to preserve the read status. I shall remove them. Helen |

Series Information
Hi,
The driver update is great, but I can't seem to get the series information to work for me - I've ensured that the appropriate box is ticked and most of my Calibre Library has series information, but I can't get it to show on my Kobo glo. Have I missed a step anywhere? Many thanks. |

Can you double check that you have Metadata management set to Auto. Also, remember you have to send the books, disconnect the Kobo so it can process the new books, then re-connect the Kobo so the series info can be added.
Metadata management is under Preferences | Import/Export | Sending books to device |

Can you confirm where the series info is meant to display on the Kobo? Thanks. |

What firmware do you have?
The series info shows up in a lighter grey under the title in any of the library / shelv views that are in list format. |

Right now 2.1.5 - I've been trying to update it for a month both on the Kobo desktop app and from the Kobo itself, but it doesn't seem to work!

Thanks. Couldn't make the manual upgrade work, so did a factory reset and uninstalled and reinstalled the Kobo desktop application. Which then finally upgraded it so now waiting with baited breath to see if the series info shows up. Thank you so much for all your help! I don't know how I missed that it only worked for 2.2 or above.

No problem at all Just glad we figured it out in the end.
@Davidfor: If you're lurking, any way to add a warning in if someone has selected the series info, and when the sync is done the device is not at the correct version? |
