I really could do with some help if possible?

Thank you

Might help to put what the problem is!

I know you've had some issues recently Millie1366 so what I'd suggest is bringing up the problems on specialist ebook reader forums such as this one http://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=223 and this one here http://www.nobooko.com or you could try getting help from Kobo themselves here https://www.kobo.com/help?style=onestore&store=GB. Good luck!

If all else fails, Kindle e-readers can be had for between £50-£60.

OK - I have posted on this and the online Library have been trying to help and i have lots of downloaded help sheets. I have worked through them but no results - but - just once a book downloaded. How it happened I don't know.

Once I am told to start going into directories I find it too confusing. In the end I have gone around in circles.

1. I can go into my Library Account and download an epub book.
2. It used to download to Adobe Digital Editions and I connect my KOBO and then I drop the book onto it.
NOW
3. As soon as I have downloaded it from the library it immediately opens up Overdrive. Then I am stuck - I think I could read it on my laptop but that is not want I want to do.

I felt things went wrong when I upgraded to Win 10 last week but I am being told that would not make a difference.

I am not sure what other info you need at the moment. I have that many 'help sheets' I think I need to file them in date order.

Thank you for offering to try and help.

I have tried several of the forum you mentions but thank you for your thoughts and I will check.

I thought long and hard about KOBO -v-Kindle so it is relatively new and I wanted it to download books from my Library and Ii thought this was the best choice. The library themselves are really trying to help. Anyway how would a Kindle be better - is it set up differently?

I'm afraid I don't know what your library set up is so I can't answer that but it is the most popular ebook reader in the UK so you'll get the widest choice of free and paid for titles.

My library uses Epub and Pdf formats and if yours does too then the links below might be of interest/help:

Finally, I use a standard tablet to read ebooks with the Bluefire reader.

It's more to do with Adobe Digital Editions on the PC than it is about the Kobo.

Thank you all - I will read through everything tomorrow. Some of the links I also recognize.

My son is coming to see me tomorrow and bringing his laptop just to see if he sets his up I can download a book from there. We thought it might be worth a try.....

I have re-set my Kobo just in case.

I will start on utube links for awhile before I stop for the night. Thank you all again.

I just cannot remember where I found the link to manage this. I sat last night and filed ALL my ‘help sheets’ supplied, feedback and my google searches into a Folder. (I had spent too long going around in circles.)

This morning I sat up in bed with folder (how sad is that) and read through them all and put notes. Then I came across one page headed ‘Windows 10: Associate a File Type with a Specific App.’ IIt took me awhile to find my way around Win10 for Control Panel >Programs>Default Programs>Set Associations. I braved it and .......

I loaded a new book (my account had failed books) in the hope to have a ‘fresh’ start. I went to checkout and it went to ADE and into library!

I connected my KOBO and couldn’t believe my eyes it loaded there!

This seemed so simple – however – until you know 'how'!

Other things are happening e.g. in Computer files, a bit above my head, but will look at downloaded help sheets later to do a 'tidy' up.

Thank you all. Have a lovely Easter Break!
