OK, thanks. I like the unexpected benefit. And thanks for your driver, plugin, etc. They make the Kobo experience the best ever.

Hi,
I am trying to set up Kobo Utilities and did the back up. Set up the column but I am not sure this works. On the device I can select on the book if it is finished or not. But since I never paid attention before I don’t know if this was there or not. I am very interested on reading status. Is there a way to have on the screen different statistics “page X to XXX” and the “time left” etc ? |

For the time left, the device does store time spent reading, but, the time remaining isn't. But, it is just an estimate based on where you are in the book and an estimated reading speed. You could calculate that based on the word or page count, percent read and your own estimate of your reading speed. It will probably be just as accurate. There is discussion about doing this somewhere here, possibly in the Count Pages plugin's thread. |

I have Calibre 4.0 (32 and 64 bit) and on my Kobo Touch (A) firmware version 4.17.13694. I had installed this version manually, but now, each time I open Calibre with the reader attached, there appears a box with the remark that there is a new firmware version for the reader and if I would like to install it. The point is, that it is the very same version that is already installed. Is there a way to show this to the plugin? as I have the Kobo patches installed, I would not be eager to do all once again.

What has been the intention for my report is, basically, that 0nce that I upgraded the reader manually, the plugin seems to not be able to recognize which firmware version is actually on the device; hence the offer to download and install a "new" firmware. In previous upgrades, I relied on the plugin to do that for me, and afterwards, it recognized the actual version. So I wanted to know if there is something irregular. but now I installed version 4.1 of Calibre (at least on my 64 bit computer), where one of the new features is the support for the new Kobo firmware (whichever may be meant, see the post of JSWolf above), and there is no more acknowledgement. so, everything isfine so far. Thanks all for the helpfulness! |

Is there a way for 3.48 Calibre users to update the Kobo plugin/driver?
