hummm... my thinking was wrong. I use Kindle for Mac (desktop) and Kindle app on my iPad. I was confused about having two "libraries" on my iMac, the Calbre lib and Kindle lib. I now realize (as I always should have) that when the .mobi file is launched from calibre it is actually launching the file from the Kindle lib. (if not present, Calibre it copies it there upon launch.)

So I guess I just need to always the the most updated .mbp file current on whichever device I'm on, and when on my Mac desktop it needs to be in the Kindle lib, having nothing to do with the Calibre lib, right?

Also, I'm not familiar with the "fetch annotations" feature in Calibre nor do I find it in the help files. Could you explain please.

Let me add... Having a great book database (Calibre) seems a little less great if I also have to keep track of the mbp files outside of Calibre.
