I am getting an error message when I try to read any of the titles that I sent to my Kindle from Calibre.

"Unable to Open Item - This item cannot be opened becuase it is licensed to a different user. Delete the item and download it from the Cloud or purchase a copy from the Kindle Store."

I suspect this has something to do with the way I registered Calibre that is inconsistent with my Amazon username, but I can't find anywhere in Calibre to check the registration.

I'm using a Kindle Touch at the moment, but my library (I'm a librarian) has other versions of Kindle readers that we're hoping to use Calibre with to manage our ebook collections.

And advice would be appreciated.
