As for blanking some of your other collections, have you run the Restore previous Kindle collections option in the plugin, and then restarted the Kindle?

Did Edit show you all the collections/books that you expected before you modified any? Had you edited collections by some other method and not restarted before? If you actually removed from your Kindle by some means other than deleting them directly from the Kindle (e.g. you did a remove in a directory or asked Calibre to delete them), then those books would no longer be able to appear in collections making it look like some collections were blanked. If you want to try to debug the collections issue then I'll be glad to help if you PM me files, examples.

Well I don't know what to tell you. I edited one collection, and saved it. when I restarted my Kindle as I was told, my 900+ books was down to 380. Almost all of my collections now contained no books. Perhaps it was all a coincidence. . . .

I did re-install all my books, and try again, using the plugin to put them all in collections and that worked just fine. However the first time I ran it, it did exactly what I described above.
