1. Should I be selecting the .azw file or the .mbp file when importing books into calibre?

As info... the .mbp file is the file that holds your bookmarks, annotations, etc. I don't have a Kindle but I can tell you that on my iPad when I load the azw the Kindle app creates the .mbp file if there isn't one. It updates as I make highlights and bookmarks. I can transfer this .mbp file to my Mac and my annotations will "travel" with the book (using Kindle for Mac). - I realize you say you have a Kindle so this is just as info.....
