Verify that you sign in to the correct Kobo account

If you can’t find your content after you sync your eReader or Kobo Books app, you might be signed in to the wrong account.

For example, if you share your eReader with another family member, you might have created two Kobo accounts.

When you buy content from Kobo, you’ll get an email receipt. The email receipt contains the email address that should be used to sign in to your Kobo eReader or Kobo Books app.

If you're having trouble signing in to your eReader with your credentials:

  • Make sure there are no spelling errors when entering your email address.
  • A common error is mis-typing the letter "O" with the number zero. If you have the letter "O" in your account credentials, delete your entry and enter your credentials again.

 

 

Step 1: Find the receipt of the missing content

Browse through your email account and find the email receipt from Kobo.

The email may start with a subject line similar to “Your Kobo Order Receipt for 1 item”. You can also try searching for “Kobo” within your inbox. The email sender will be from “kobo.com”.

Once you’ve found your email receipt, you’ll see the email account associated with the item.

The email will have a message that reads something similar to: “Thank you for your recent purchase from Kobo. We’ve added your item(s) listed below to this account: <your email address here>”

 

 

Step 2: Verify the email address on your Kobo eReader

Verify that the email address from your receipt is the same email address that’s signed in to your eReader.

  1. Go to your Home screen.
  2. Tap the Menu icon Menu icon at the top of the screen.
  3. Tap Settings.
  4. Tap Accounts.
  5. Under 'Kobo', you'll see the email address that's signed in to the eReader.
  6. Verify that the email address that you see is the same as the email receipt.
  • If the email matches: You are signed in with the correct account.
  • If the email does not match: Sign in with the email address shown on your Kobo receipt.

 

 

Step 3: Verify the email address on your Kobo Books app

Verify that the email address from your receipt is the same email address that’s signed in to your Kobo Books app.

Old version of app

  1. Go to your Home screen.
  2. On Android: Tap the Menu icon Menu icon.
    On iOS: Tap the Three dots menu icon More icon.
  3. Tap Settings.
  4. Under 'Sign Out', you'll see the email address that's signed in to the Kobo Books app.
  5. Verify that the email address that you see is the same as the email receipt.
  • If the email matches: You are signed in with the correct account.
  • If the email does not match: Sign in with the email address shown on your Kobo receipt.

New version of app

  1. Go to your Home screen.
  2. Tap the Three dots menu icon More icon at the bottom of the screen.
  3. Tap Account.
  4. Verify that the email address that you see is the same as the email receipt.
    • If the email matches: You are signed in with the correct account.
    • If the email does not match: Sign in with the email address shown on your Kobo receipt.

After you confirmed that you’re signed in to the correct account, try syncing your eReader or Kobo Books app again.

If you've tried all the steps above and still can't find your book or audiobook:

  • You may have deleted the item from your account. To get the item back, you can try restoring it from your Kobo account.
  • You may have entered an incorrect email address when you purchased your item. For example, you might have missed a letter when entering your email address and purchased a book.
  • If you see a “Content Lock” or “Authorization” error message, the content you're trying to read needs to be added using Adobe Digital Editions.
