  • Kobo doesn't show up when connected via USB
    1 project | /r/kobo | 26 Dec 2022
    Hi everyone, I'm using a Kobo Clara HD and I was trying to install KoboCloud on my device. I completed every step shown in their github page and the procedure seemed to have succeced, anyway when I tried to connect it via USB my OS (Ubuntu in this case) didn't show the device. Since this thing has already happened to me (and previosly this day the very same USB connection worked just fine) I thought that the Kobo needed a factory reset, but even after that nothing changed. So I started panicking and tried with different cables and OS (I tried Win and a Live version of Ubuntu), I even went for a factory reset with DevModeOn (this restore the firmware version to the first one), same issue. I'm seriously starting to worring now because I rely, for the entirity of my readings, on the imported e-books. If you have any suggestion (whether solving the problem or just bypassing it) you would save my life!! Thank you in advance for your time.
