OK - well I decided to consistently re-title the PDF guide books , in calibre, so that they'd all appear in one place on the shelf.

I thought that all I'd need need to do was connect to content server & CC would then automatically pick up the updated titles - but that did not seem to work. even when I told it to download books it already had, I was still seeing some old titles.

so I went for the quick fix of nuking them all & re-downloading - that fixed it!

but what's my wrong assumption here - when /how does CC update its copy of something like a book title, if it has the book but the title is then altered within calibre on PC.
From somewhere, I picked up the ( maybe wrong ) idea that whenever CC connects to content server it compares it's records to those in calibre & updates as needed ?

To be specific, I edited the displayed title of some PDF books within calibre via the main window, by double tapping the title field & then editing its content.. then I got CC running on the Kindle & had it connect, then disconnect. Was I just too impatient or am I missing something ? there's less that 20 books on the tablet, so a metadata check should not take a long time, surely ?
