Then I'd go into the Collection and choose "Add/Remove to the Collection.". Sort the books by most recent first and all the books you want should be in the first pages.
There is a wonky bug here and a good number of the time when you choose add to the collection you (or at least I did) get a blank screen. Back out of that blank screen and repeat - choose add/remove books to collection again and this time it should work. I sent off an email to Amazon about that bug but never heard anything back.
Anyway, with the books sorted by most recent first it is much easier at least to find them without having to go through all the pages of all your books. I can't tell you how many to do at once because I think my largest collections only have about 25 books in them. 25 seemed to go fine.
I know it is frustrating, I'm really hoping that Calibre plug-in gets an update.

We are thinking alike,
I learned my lesson from the problems with the first Touch. I have already sectioned off the small batches and labeled them in Calibre so that this time when I do it the process will be much easier to manage. I am also going through my K4PC collections to see if the ones that were not showing up is because I forgot to put them in a collection. I really wish there was a way to tell in K4PC if a book was not in any collection, I think I will send in an email requesting they add it. Not saying they will but it would sure be nice.
