Then something is broken with your device or your version of android, or you are suffering from something similar to what kaufman described in this post. To be precise, android is telling CC that there is no writable special CC folder on the SD card, so CC does not show that button.

I suggest you try the following:
  1. If you have nothing on the SD card, reformat it and go to step 3.
  2. If you have things on the SD card you don't want to lose, ensure that there is no folder /Android/data/com.multipie.calibreandroid on it. If there is such a folder, delete it.
  3. With the SD card in the device, uninstall and reinstall CC.
I have no idea whether the failed root attempt is causing troubles.

I do know that hundreds of CC users are using SD cards with kitkat, which implies that it works. Of course that doesn't help you, where it doesn't work.
