#KOBO EREADER UPDATE PROBLEMS BLUETOOTH#

When I attempted to click 'OK' on the notification to manually enable wifi, the screen was unresponsive. Instead, I received a pop-up notifying me that I needed to manually enable wifi before Pocket could refresh. After finishing an article on Pocket, I turned off wifi and refreshed Pocket to see if it would prompt wifi to turn on momentarily to refresh. I have recently been interested in extending the battery life of the device.

Welcome to the new and improved Kobo Reddit Rules The fewer books you do at a time the easier it is to pinpoint that problem ebook.Anything and everything about the Kobo eReader. Try just transferring 5 books at a time (as in transfer ebooks, eject, unplug, wait for system update, check books have successfully transferred) or make sure you don’t transfer more than 15mb at once. It’s possible that one of your ebooks is corrupt or badly formatted causing the whole transfer to fail. Just leave it and go make a sandwich or watch some youtube videos. The updating can take ages to start and ages to process. And don’t worry if it seems to be unresponsive at first – it’s usually still updating the library. Don’t try to use it straight after transfering. *Tip 5:After the transfer just leave your Kobo to do its thing. Even a few minutes can help with large files. Wait in case your Kobo is still processing. *Tip 4: Don’t unplug your cable straight away.

If my book is more than 15mb I tend to transfer the book, go away and make a cup of tea, come back, and then eject the Kobo. *Tip 3: REMEMBER TO EJECT YOUR KOBO! And don’t eject your Kobo straight after the transfer, give it time to process. I would try to add batches that are no more than 15mb total. If your books are more than 10mb each try adding them separately. *Tip 1:If you find your books aren’t transferring, try using Calibre. It turns out there are a few work arounds you can use to get your ebooks across. And you know the drill… I think I tried about 5 or 6 times before I started trying different ways. And yes, of course you tried more than once. PROBLEM 3: You just tried to add a bunch of ebooks and they just don’t show up.

I personally used the one for charging my bluetooth headphones, but I would try any newer cable that’s micro USB to USB. But then It connected first time when I used a newer cable. And again I thought, perhaps my Kobo is just too old to handle this… it doesn’t matter, there are still loads of books on my Kobo. PROBLEM 2: You just tried to connect your Kobo to your PC/Mac/other device and it hasn’t been recognised. Main Menu > Settings > Date and Time > change > SORTED! But when I checked it was set to something ridiculous like 1890. Turns out all it needed was for me to update the date and time! I had previously reset my Kobo and because I never use it to check the time so it never occured to me. And for ages I thought, well it doesn’t matter I can just find the book in my library. PROBLEM 1: Main page remains static – doesn’t update the top page with the books you are currently reading.

I just wanted to share this in case anyone is having the same issues as me.
