Did you set the backup directory? Did the directory exist? Were the permissions appropriate for the backup? What options did you choose for the backup?

Series is numbered order?
I am using Kobo Utilities and can't seem to work out how to get my Kobo Aura HD (in my collections) to have the series in numbered order.
In Calibre, I have a column called series which is in order and a column called shelves which is all working fine. Can someone please help me here. I am not very good at this so please explain in layman terms. Thanks! PS: I could'nt find a new thread button only reply to thread, thats why it is here |

The only way to achieve series sorting is the same way the other devices use: a metadata plugboard that changes the title or author. Some instructions for doing this are in https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kobo...de_Series_Info. There are other suggestions for the metadata plugboard in a thread in the Library Management subforum. |

Translations
Because of a post in another thread, I realised I have not generated the language files for a long time. Sorry, a very long time. There are a few extra strings. If anyone wants to translate these, I will add these to the next release. And promise to update the files more often.
For anyone who wants to do a translation, the attached file contains the default English file and the Spanish translation. If you have not done this before, POEdit is an easy to use free tool for translating. You open the file "default.po" with POEdit, set the language and enter the translated text for each source string. POEdit shows what has and hasn't been translated. When you have done the translations, save the file and post or send it to me. Notes:

Here you have the Spanish translation. I've found two mistakes (I think):

Update to version 2.5.0
I have just uploaded version 2.5.0 of the plugin. This doesn't have anything big in it, mainly catching up on problems and suggestions from late last year.
The changes are:
As usual, calibre will announce the update in the next hour or so. And if anyone sees any problems, please report them here. |

Kobo Utility - Refresh books on the device
Hi David,
I need your advice: This is my first attempt with the function "refresh the list of books on the device". What I did 1. There are 5 books in Calibre's (test)library 2. Send this 5 books to my device 3. Display Main memory and Calibre's library 3.1 The 5 books are visible in Calibre's column "On Device" 3.2 The 5 books are visible by action icon "Show books in the main memory of the device" 4. Action: "Refresh the list of books on the device" 5. The 5 Books are not longer visible in column "on Device" 6. The 5 Books are not longer visible by action icon "Show books in the main memory of the device" 7. Eject the device 8. The 5 Books are on the device 9. Connect the device 10. = # 5 11. = # 3.2 What have I done wrong? Thanks -P- PS.: it's independent from version 2.50 |

When you send a book to the device using calibre, the books are put onto the device, the device list is updated to include the books, but the database is not updated. If you close and reopen calibre or refresh the book list, the database is read again and the books not in the database will be ignored. As I said, this is working as designed. When you disconnect the device, it will process the new books into the database. And the net time you connect the device, the books will be seen again. |

Hi, David
This is likely to be one of the more trivial requests ever made but I'm noticing that the About Plugin option is greyed out. Could it be made available again? Last edited by DNSB; 01-09-2017 at 03:10 AM. |
