Hi All.
I have just installed Calibre and now want to copy some books I have on my Kindle Fire 7 HD into my Calibre program on my laptop.

I tried connecting via the KIndle cable and Windows Explorer (Win 10) shows the Kindle but I don't see it in Calibre and I don't see where I would expect to see the KIndle in Calibre. I looked at every folder showing under Kindle but I see no sign of the books I want to copy in the laptop Calibre. I'm wondering if I need a plugin or am I doing it right so far?

I thought I would be able to connect over wi-fi but I can't see how to do that either!

Any pointers/explanations would be gratefully received.
