Kobo Aura - is there a way to keep collections after recharging?
Every time I charge my Kobo Aura, I notice many of the books in the collections disappear (they are still on the Kob, they just don't appear in the collection lists anymore). I have to retag them all.
Is there a way to fix this or it is a bug I have live with? |

Best solution is to use calibre for creating the collections and then if they disappear you can get them back in minutes. Helen |

I'm recharging with my computer. My AC charger doesn't work with the Kobo. How would I create a collection with Calibre? Would it be the same as the Virtual Library?

This really sounds like an issue with a corrupted database on the device. No matter how the collections are made a recharge, or power off / on, or a sleep cycle should not cause them to go missing.

Peter
How would I fix a corrupted datebase? Would I remove all the books (with Calibre) and then add them again? |

Helen, thank you for the link to Peter's thread.
Peter, thank you for the thread. I've decided to keep my shelves in Calibre and get rid of the ones in Kobo. (I'm in the process of doing this.) Last edited by Purrceyz; 05-12-2014 at 11:54 PM. |

Thank you Peter. Is there anyway to put the listing of the shelves in order? |

Would you accept a simple "YES" as an answer?
