Hi

I have used calibre to send books to my kindle fire 2nd gen for a few years now but decided to get a second kindle as my old one was getting rather battered, i decided to use the old one as backup .

i have my library on my laptop and send my books to the kindle from it

i bought a kindle 7th gen so i could add a SD card and wanted to send my library to the SD card, i clicked set default send to device action thinking i was telling calibre to send to card > send to card A. but i have caused my self a problem as now when calibre sends a book it deleats it from my laptop library after its sent the book to my device, does anyone know how to stop calibre from deleting the books please as no matter what i try i cant stops it from deleting my books after its sent them to my kindle

thanks
caz
