Now I'm in deeper trouble. I've deleted everything from my Kindle...or rather, I tried. There are some books on there that are duplicates. (Recently I was attempting to organize the titles on my Kindle, editing them and reuploading them to the Kindle, all the while trying to keep them organized in collections...clearly I've messed something up). I can't eliminate any of these books from showing on the Kindle screen, there's two of each of them, and when I try to delete them by holding down the title of the book and choosing 'delete' they're still there. When I click on the actual titles, it tells me the item has been removed and is no longer available on my Kindle. When I try to delete via Calibre, it tells me the book is not on the Kindle. And when I try to delete by going into the files on my Kindle from my computer, they don't show up. Yet they're right there on the screen of the Kindle.
I still can't transfer any books to Kindle using Calibre, they simply don't show up on the Kindle. I need to get rid of these duplicate books, as that is probably where the corrupted file is that's causing this issue.

How do I get rid of these titles, to start with a clean slate?
