Thank you for your reply. I guess I just can't get this to work. I've entered my username in Preferences → Miscellaneous → Sync bookmarks/highlights with Content server user. It's the same username I use to log into the Content Server. Bookmarks and highlights sync reliably between browser viewer and calibre viewer, and reading position syncs reliably between different browser viewers. However, the reading position never syncs between browser viewer and calibre viewer (in either direction). Is there something I can try to get this working? In case it matters, I have enabled both "Remember current page when quitting" and also "Keep a copy of annotations/bookmarks in the e-book file, for easy sharing". I'm using calibre 5.37 on a Mac.

Thanks for offering this perspective. This is not something I had thought to try, partly because I am so comfortable using the calibre viewer. Are there particular reasons you prefer using the content server? Does it have to do with reliable syncing, or is there more to it than that?
