Once again, you can have either automatic syncing or content sharing, not both. And that limitation comes from Amazon.
Hello Kovidgoyal. First off thank you for making Calibre such a great program and keeping it free!

About this feature though, it's not so much the fact of content sync or facebook sharing. I think many users only use one device to read so content sync isn't the biggest problem. The real problem in my opinion is the fact that to have your own books (not kindle books) categorized as books and not personal documents, you need to NOT have sharing enabled. When sharing a legitimate book to facebook it will say personal document, not the title of the book. Also, apparently when finishing a book you can't rate or share that fact to facebook althogether and that I'm sure, doesn't affect copyright restricting Amazon may impose.

I little bit off topic but I hate how Amazon is using every trick to kill competition.
