Hey all,

I have my Kobo set to make tags in Calibre into collections on the device. It works beautifully.

But I've noticed in Calibre I'll see something like 'Action & Adventure' and 'Action and Adventure' which makes two different collections on the Kobo.

I've updated the tags in Calibre, removing esoteric ones I don't care about like Adoption. But they remain on the Kobo. I've tried using 'update cached metadata on device', but when I disconnect the Aura, they are still there.

Is there a way to resend the metadata to remove the now deleted tags short of removing books from the device?
