See the sticky topic -Quick Guide to Shelf Management and it will walk you through how to set everything up.

Calibre works perfectly with the current kobo f/w; you just need to select the option
Attempt to support newer firmware in the Customize option for the driver.
The duplicated shelf issue is not related to calibre; rather it's a long time issue with Kobo syncs. with the cloud. There does though seem to be a bug right now with the Kobo Utility plugin option to cleanup duplicated shelves.
One option when you DO get things back is to add the option
SyncShelves=false to the
[ApplicationPreferences] section of the
.kobo\Kobo\Kobo eReader.conf file on the device. This will ensure that shelves don't get synced with the Kobo cloud.
