New to KOReader on Kobo - best practices with Calibre?

[abdirahim]

Thanks to NiLuJe instructions found in the forum, I managed to install KOReader on my Kobo Aura H2O. It's great!

I've also managed to transfer files wirelessly to my device using both DropBox and Calibre server. Yippee!

1. But now I'm wondering, what location should I be downloading these ebook files to? Should I specify the folder as the root, or instead create a separate downloads folder? Will this interfere with Calibre, or create a problem if I switch back and forth between KOReader and Kobo's software?

2. And what the heck's up with USB? I can't get that to do anything when connected. There's a menu option in KOReader to start this, but it doesn't seem to work when I connect to my Windows PC, just starts a countdown saying it's going to back itself out...?

Thanks!

That depends on whether you want Nickel to see it or not. If you don't, put it in a hidden folder, for example .books (note the . at the beginning). If you do, it doesn't matter. I don't think Calibre cares.
