I am certain there is some very simple thing that I'm not doing, but since I haven't been able to figure it out, here goes. How can I configure my Calibre preferences, metadata whatever to allow my books to be loaded and searched by the author's surname on a Kindle Fire HDX 8.9? Yeah, I am that dumb. In my defence though, my Nook Simple Touch, Colour and HDs never had this issue... I just clicked send format to device and I was off! I thoght that the Kindle would be the same. Also, my Calibre converted AZW3 files are showing fine, but reading through the forums, I get the idea that I should have chosen Mobi?

Thanks in advance for any help!
