A few questions: Do you actually sync collections on your 950 with the Windows 7 PC normally? It sounds like you don't which is why nothing is transferring during sync. When you look at the ebooks on your device within the Reader Library do you have arrows over the book icon? The arrows mean they are synced ebooks. I am going to assume for now that the answer is that you don't have arrows and provide some suggestions.

On the Windows 7 PC, within the Reader Library, did you try to drag and drop the ebooks from your device to the PC Library? In other words move them from "Books" on the Reader to "Library" on your PC in the left-hand column. That will take the books off your device and put them on your hard-drive. Your notes should go with the books. Once you see it in the Reader Library on your PC Library, then you can open it to double-check that you see your notes. Then you should be able to upload your books from the PC Library to the new 950 and the notes will go with them.

You could also drag and drop the ebooks from your Reader to your hard-drive via Windows Explorer (Mac Finder). However, I don't think that will retain your notes.

Somebody else might have a calibre suggestion. I mostly use the Sony Reader Library so I am not sure how calibre would deal with annotations.

If your notes are handwritten notes, via the Handwriting Application rather than book markups, then the process is different and you don't need Reader Library.
