You may need to edit the metadata for the book to ensure it gets an Amazon number assigned to it if the source is non-Amazon. My standard workflow is:
  • Buy book (or Borrow from Library)
  • Download to local hard disk.
  • Add to Calibre (This strips DRM if it has it, thanks to Tools.)
  • Edit Metadata to update cover, ASIN, Series, etc.
  • Convert to MOBI. Even if it already IS a MOBI. This sets the metadata.
  • Upload to Kindle and/or Fire.
