Sort of a PSA + request for help post. I upgraded my machines to macOS Sequoia Dev Beta and I noticed that my Libra 2 is not getting mounted post upgrade. I tested it on two different MacBooks (sadly I got ahead of myself and upgraded both) with different kinds of cables although, the same cables worked without a hitch before. Disk Utility shows the following after connecting and tapping on the prompt that appears on the Kobo: https://imgur.com/a/8icqhJM
If there's any workaround to fix this or if you're in the same boat, please let me know. |

I am not sure what cables you are using. Mac's can be finicky when it comes to connecting Kobo devices. I found my AuraH20, L2, and CBW would have issues if I use the USB-C cables with my silicone macs. I always use a USB Dongle/Hub with a USB 2.0 out port that I then plug in the Kobo via a USB-C cable. Not sure if this issue is the same as yours, but there are many links on a google search about issues with Kobo's connecting to USB-C ports on Macs.

Create a „backup“ via Time Machine so that you can do a system wipe and restore your data.

There are times that my Kobo doesn't show up in Calibre. I have installed NickelMenu, and in that the option to connect via USB. I find that selecting USB connection in NickelMenu often forces the Kobo to show up properly on my Mac. I have not installed the beta.
Of course, you can't configure NickelMenu without a USB connection, so this might be a catch-22 answer. |

Libra 2 not mounting on macOS Sequoia Dev Beta

I have this problem with all of my Kobos on my iMac even with the USB hub trick. I also installed the USB connection menu item using nickel menu and that seems to make a reliable connection every time. |

Sorry for not responding here sooner and thanks for the suggestions. Anyway, I made the dumb mistake of updating all my systems without backups so I had to settle for doing the transfers via Windows. The issue seems to be resolved as of Beta 5. Can seamlessly transfer again!
