I have a Literati for my daughter since 2 days. I have done the 2 updates.
I have some problems: When I uploaded many books, there aren't all these books on the Literati. I try it with ADE and with Drag + Drop. For example a book which I buy online here in germany. I uploaded 79 books and only 63 books are on the Literati. What is wrong? I uploaded books on a SD Card and put these in the Literati. I can't find the books on the Literati. So I think the Literati will not recognize the SD Card. Why? The book cover stinks a lot . How can I sort the books in order? Who can helps me? Thanks! Last edited by Kijac; 02-20-2011 at 06:40 AM. |

No, that were all EPUB's .....
With the Sony Reader I can make collections and sort in these collections. Is it possible too with the Literati? When I mean sort, I mean Book 1, Book 2, Book 3 from a serie .... |

When you connect the Literati to your PC, you should see two new icons, one for the Literati and one for the SD card. Do you?
Also, I've noticed that my Literati has trouble finding books that were recently added that are by the same author as books already on my SD card. When I add books like these, I usually move the entire folder off of the SD card, eject the Literati to let it process new content, then re-connect the Literati and add the entire folder (with the new books in it) to the SD card. Then I eject it for the second time. The second time I eject it, the Literati finds everything that I've added. Last edited by Rook008; 02-21-2011 at 12:55 PM. |

Who's in charge of Literati?
Still asking about Literati -- who does updates and online customer service? Literatireader.com mentions firmware v1.9, hasn't updated the manuals, doesn't reply via the contact form (why not remove it if it's not active) and the videos misrepresent some features. I've written a couple of good reviews but the above shortcomings generate negative comments that have to be hurting sales.

Hello,
I am new to this. I just wanted to share some Literati information. I just found the Literati for sale on HSN. Also, I was on at goodreader.com and read that Sharper Image is releasing a newer version (Literati 2). Thanks |

They're still selling them, as far as I know it's only Bed, Bath & Beyond that was clearancing them out of their stores. I've seen the black model at Best Buy and both the black and white models at a Belk store in the past week, and they weren't marked down.
As far as who is supporting them, according to someone who had to make a lot of calls to get support, if it's a software issue it's Kobo. If it's a hardware issue, the manufacturer of the Literati is Merch Source. Sharper Image just puts their name & Literati on them. Merch Source has 2 Customer Service numbers for hardware issues (I was given this number as well when I e-mailed Sharper Image about an issue with my charging cover). 800-374-2744 800-481-7938 866-204-4714 is Kobo's customer support help line for software issues. |

Merch Source owns the Liberatireader.com web site. If their obsolete and inaccurate content is an indication of their support, we are in a world of hurt...

I just got mine from Kohls today. I printed Bed, Bath & Beyond's $39.99 ad from their website before it went away. I had a 30% off Kohls coupon. I paid $30.30 which included .0825 sales tax. I had $22 Kohls gift cards. It was version 1.6. I updated it to version 2. I synced to Kobo to read my free ebook. I have not connected it to my computer yet to download my 'calibred' books.

Mr. Pocket,
I have my calibre set for Aluratek. However I have not downloaded any of my books that I 'calibred'. I just drag and drop from my laptop to my SD card. I use Calibre to mark read and not read. Can I use the ALP SD card and insert it to my Literati? I can't find it!! I am frantically looking for it. Calibre question: If my calibre is set for Aluratek, do I have to set a second Calibre for Literati? I currently have only EPUB & .pdf in my Calibre. |
