If the annotations are stored inside the book then with some amount of pain you can upload the book to calibre and replace the book in the library. Have CC connect to calibre as a wireless device, go to calibre's device view, right click on the book in question, and upload it to the computer. Then in calibre's library view go to the book in question, edit its metadata, then drag the book onto the formats list to replace the format that is already in the library. Yes, this is not easy. And no, it won't change.
Your best bet is to use a reader app that stores annotations somewhere in the cloud and depend on that for syncing. That won't get the annotations into calibre, but at least they are stored somewhere.
Another possibility is to do what I did when I was writing on my PhD dissertation: put the notes into a bibliographic manager. That way they are available when writing papers or studying. They won't be lost because they are separate from the book. This method also works when referencing (shock) a journal version of the document.

ok thanks. i use moon+ reader, ill look if i can use my cloud storage with that for storage. I hate writing notes outside of the book, unless the book is in physical format then its ok to write in my notebook i guess.
thanks for the answer!
