Apologies if this has been addressed already. I searched and found people having one of these problems, but not all of them together.

I exported an epub file from InDesign, then cleaned it up in Sigil (removing the 203 cover InDesign creates and streamlining the CSS).

Right now, the epub looks perfect in Nook, Adobe Digital Editions, Calibre, and when using the Firefox Epubreader extension. The book opens to the front cover, and the TOC lists the cover as the first item.

However, in iBooks and in the .mobi file created by the Kindle Previewer, the book opens to the title page and does not list the cover in the TOC.

I know this is a small thing most readers won't notice, but I want it to look the way I want it to look! At the very least, I'd like to understand why it's behaving this way.

Thanks in advance for all assistance.
