Can't create collections in Calibre with Fire HD
I bought a Fire HD (7 according to the tablet) and was able to transfer a lot of books onto it via Calibre. However, when I went to use the plugin to create collections it said that the Fire HD was an unknown model. Any suggestions please?

I suspect: Kindle collections.

I believe that Big A has blocked its usability on newer models. Still works with a K4

If that's the case then the user has to understand that the Fire is not a Kindle. For my Android devices I user Calibre Companion to manage the collections on my device.

Amazon does not like Caibre being able to create collections on it's eInk devices.

Calibre never created collections with any tablet.
