Comment 4 for bug 807832

Hi Tim,

Thanks for coming back to me so quickly.

I've just reconnected my Kobo to try your suggestions. Still nothing showing in the device memory, I'm not sure why I keep thinking that might change! Tried to send a book to the Kobo, didn't work (what a surprise). Tried to call the Kobo helpdesk yesterday. Couldn't stay on hold for long enough!!

Debug mode gave me the following first error message:

calibre, version 0.8.9
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

no such column: FavouritesIndex

Traceback (most recent call last):

OperationalError: no such column: FavouritesIndex

Here's the second debug error message:

I'm looking to upgrade the firmware now, but I think I already did that when it was reset?

Cheers :)
