Device: Kobo Aura HD, Aura ONE
Calibre & Kobo Utilities creating empty collections on new Aura ONE

Hi all. I recently acquired a new Kobo (Aura ONE), in additon to my older Aura HD. I use Calibre and Kobo Utilities to create and manage collections. When I connected the Aura ONE, Calibre (through the Kobo plugin, I think) created collections for books that I never transferred. What I mean is that when I plugged in my new Kobo for the first time, I was just making sure that it connected to Calibre. I didn't load books or do anything at all. But when I disconnected the Aura ONE, it had created collections. They were empty, as I had not sent any books to the device, but the collections had been created. Since I would like to have different books on each device, the collections will not be the same so empty collections are not helpful. Is there a way to avoid this?

ETA: by collections, I am referring to bookshelves that I create on the device using Calibre so that books are grouped together. [end of ETA]

I do have multiple computers so a simple solution would be to just use a different computer for each different Kobo device, but I thought I would check if there was a setting in Calibre or Kobo Utilities that would allow me to address this.

Thanks in advance.
