I've tried both Calibre Sync and Calibre Companion apps for android and they both can connect to Calibre on my Macbook and detect my books there, but I still have to download them onto my phone. Within these apps I see auto-connect options which all work perfectly, but nothing that automatically downloads books from my mac to my phone.

Basically I want what ibooks (via iTunes) is able to do, just keep the collections in sync across the board. I get the feeling I CAN do this with Calibre but I haven't figured out how yet.

Not to appear lazy, but I have hundreds of books I'd like to keep in sync between my mac and my Samsung Galaxy Note 2. If I have to download each and every new book, it kind of defeats the purpose of auto connect if the process just stops there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated -- thanks in advance!!
