I don't actually have a Kindle device. I use the Nook. I also use Kindle for Mac, and Kindle on my Android phone. I use Calibre in part to read the Kindle books on the Nook.

Can this Annotations plugin fetch notes/highlighting from my Kindle for Mac, or do I have to have a device physically plugged in for it to fetch from?

When I click on the icon and go to "import annotations from," I'm only given "good reader" as an option.
Um, did you read the first post? There is a table in it that shows what is supported. It explicitly shows Kindles as a hardware device only.

Support for other devices and applications can be added (I'm in the process of adding support for the tolino devices). But, it needs the annotations to be accessible, understandable and for someone to have the time and skills to do it. I haven't looked at the way the annotations are stored in the Kindle applications, but I suspect they aren't in an easily extractable format.
