I'm guessing right click on book and it should show an option ? Can't seem to find it though, I've restarted Calibre as instructed but still can't find it, I also read about settings in the "tools" section and adding it but it doesn't show the cover plugin Thanks.
As for any Calibre plugin you may wish to add, you need to add the Copy Cover option to one (or more) of your toolbars/menus.

For example, suppose you wanted to add it to the right-click context menu (see attached image for reference)
  • Go to Calibre Preferences - Toolbar
  • From the drop-down list along the top (in very large letters) select The context menu for the books in the calibre library
  • In the left-hand list (Available actions), find Copy cover to device (its a little brown book icon) and click the blue arrow pointing to the right-hand list (Current actions). The right-hand list contains all the items you currently see when you right-click on a book.
  • The Copy cover item will move to the bottom of the right-hand list.
  • You can use the green up/down arrows to move the item up/down the list if you wish.
  • When you're happy, press Apply (top row) followed by Close

Now, if you highlight a book in the library window and right-click you should see Copy cover to device on the list of actions.

By the way, I have customised a few of my Calibre icons so don't be surprised if yours look different. The little brown book icon should be the same though.

Does this help?
