I'm currently reading a medieval crime book wich contains some usefull features as : a time table (based on the church services) with approximative correspondance to actual time in a day and the most usefull to understand what's happening : a map of the abbey where the action takes place. So I set bookmarks on the twoo pages that interest me more to go back to them in case of need.
Now begin my problems : the first one : first bookmark is called "100% in the chapter" : not very clear to have a good idea of what it's about... The second one : the bookmark I put on the map doesn't show at all, though when I go back to that page, it's clearly marked.
I've had a play after finding a book with a map. In this case, the map is the only thing in the chapter. And it works as expected. I can tap the top right corner, the dog-ear shows and the annotation list shows the bookmark. Selecting it takes me to the correct page.

The annotations list should show what chapter the bookmark is in. But, if the bookmark is in a file that is not in the ToC, the new list doesn't show the chapter name. I didn't remember what the old list did, so I just put my Touch back to 3.3.0. The bookmarks for files that are not in the TOC are listed under the file name within the book. For my example, this shows as "OEBPS/TEXT/MAP.HTML".

The only other thing I can think of is if you edited the book after sending it to the device and then replaced the book without deleting it first. This could result in a mismatch between the book and the TOC stored in the devices database. That can lead to some strange things happening. But, I would expect it to produce the opposite of what you are seeing; the bookmark in the list but not displayed on the page.

At this point, I would probably delete the book from the device and resend it. That could clean everything up and fix the problem. Otherwise, we would probably need to see the book to try an work out what is going wrong.
