Hello everyone!
I bought the TOlino Shine Color this week, because I have a Kobo Clara, with which I'm not happy at all and because up to 6 years ago, I had a Tolino, which I loved. I configured my Tolino yesterday, and put lots of my books on it and was very disappointed: my books from Pearl S. Buck for example got put in 2 folders: 1 for Pearl S. and one for Buck. I hate that! It is like that in the Kobo Clara also. People tell me to change the name with "adapt meta" in Calibre, but I don't know how. What do I do? Ask my money back for this Tolino? Take a course on how to work with Calibre? I changed the names of the books of Pearl S. Buck in Calibre, but where do the adapted books go? And why don't I see my Tolino in Calibre while it is connected to my PC? I'm really desparate for help and advice. |

I'm not familiar with Tolinos, but first, what version of Calibre do you have on your PC? And when you connect your Tolino to your PC, can you see it in the Explorer (i.e. can your computer see your Tolino)?

Edit: Once you have changed the metadata (I'd suggest using the Quality Check plugin to swap the author names), you will need to resend the books with the corrected metadata since Kobo and apparently, Tolino, obtain the author name from the metadata in the ePub file.

And not sure why you have the thread title of "Why don't I see my Tolino in Calibre?"
This may run into which version of calibre you have since calibre needs an update that knows about the Tolino Shine Colour device. If calibre is up to date (currently 7.12) and it does not see your Tolino Shine Colour properly, see the My device is not detected by calibre for the procedure to follow. |
