If the files are not in the right format calibre will convert them when sending them to your Kobo. Remember that with calibre and your Kobo plugged in you need to use the send to device button so it can convert the files that are not in a supported format (you might need to set your preferred file format in the preferences->behavior). Also since you added books multiple times check if your don't have multiples books per entry in calibre (Edit metadata look at the top right) and also don't have duplicate entries.
And Forget ADE completely unless you have DRM books. Don't be afraid that your books will get deleted or you won't find them inside calibre. Just backup your entire calibre directory.

So is it basically the same principle between Calibre and ADE as Windows Media player and ITunes then? I only add what I want to ITunes and it is not the same as WMP?
Also if I backup the Calibre folder and also My Digital Editions folder, what happens if I have to reinstall ADE or Calibre after maybe a reformat of my pc?
Do I just re add the folders then?
Do I not need the folder I created with Epubs in?
