I am trying to be good and research all my question's before posting, but sometimes....correction, a LOT of the time, things go right past me.

I think that I am having some same collection issues. All of my books are on the SD, and I guess the collection's too. I have my kobo utilities set for 'new' collections. Each time that I delete a collection, should I purge it as well, the next time that I connect to Calibre?

Also today, I accidentally deleted a collection of books that I was reading. I reloaded them and now it said that they were DRM....hogwash. I went through some old posts and was told the last time that this happened, it probably means the database on the device is corrupted. And that I should sign out and then sign back in. I did this and it solved the book problem. But now I have many collection's that I had previously deleted. (I had synced with Kobo).

So my next question is, once I get the device the way that I want it with the new collection's, if I sync with Kobo again, will this new set up override what is currently in my “Kobo cloud”?
