hi there,

I just got started to use Calibre. Brilliant software. Here's where I am stuck.
Cleaned up all the metadata and tried to export to Samsung Note 10.1, reading off FB reader.

1. Via a mac, Calibre can't recognise my Samsung device. Fortunately still can transfer via sdmicro card.
2. The various 'safe to disk' methods does not embed new cover nor book description into the original epub file. Seems only the 'tags' works.
3. To view the changed details, FB reader needs to opf file ... but that wouldn't launch the books.

I already seems days trying to figure this out myself (admittedly, not extremely computer savvy).

Kindly help.
