I find that some e-books I did not get from amazon.com do not appear on my Paperwhite 2 when I try to transfer them using Calibre. I have no such problem transferring them to my Kindle Keyboard. The latest example is The Nature of Things by Lucretius, which I downloaded in .azw format from manybooks.net. I transferred it to my KK with no problem, but although Calibre marks the book as transferred to my Paperwhite, it does not appear with All Items selected. I searched my items for it in vain. I tried converting it from .azw to .azw3, but that did not work, either. I don't understand why the Paperwhite should not accept these files as KK does.
