Transfer or copy data from one pocketbook to another

jennelis · 08-05-2020, 04:48 AM

hi there,

I have two pocketbook inkpad 3 readers (one with a broken screen... don't ask

) and I want to transfer the data from the old one to a new one. How can I do that?

Of course I can copy books from Calibre to the new one, that's not the problem.

I want the data such as statistics, notes, page markers and so on copied to the new inkpad. Is that possible?

I cannot use the screen anymore. I tried to look up in the files on the old inkpad by using a usb cable and my pc, but I couldn't find and see such files.

Has anyone the trick how to do this? Thank you very much!

If you can still connect your old InkPad to the computer, you need to have hidden and system folders on visible. Then you can copy the system folder on the internal storage of the old device to the new device. Make sure they run the same firmware version. Your user stats and bookmarks are in there, I don't know about notes though.

I will try that!! Thank you!

I hope that the firmwareversions are the same...

I don't get it. Standard I have hidden files on visible on my pc (windows 10). But I can't see any system maps or files on the inkpad 3 pro?

Firmware is the same

What about visibility of system files? That's a second option in Windows.
