If I'm not mistaken (not a Kindle user myself), then you can only import annotations from the books, that are uploaded to the e-reader (e.g. Kindle) using Calibre itself.
Therefore books purchased on the device itself aren't detected.
---
Kindle stores actual annotations for each book in single/several files in a binary format, which are located in the same folder as a book file. Usually, these binary files have the same basename as a book file, but different file extensions. What you see inside a "My Clippings.txt" file is just an extract from these binary files, that is parsed by the Calibre.
---
A theoretical way to solve the problem (needs to be repeated for every problematic book):
1. move (delete them from Kindle which also will auto-remove from any Kindle collection) every book with all connected binary files (see explanation above) from the Kindle to the Computer
2. import a book file into Calibre (DRM-protected books won't be imported; use Google to find out more about this topic)
3. send a book from Calibre to the Kindle
4. copy all book-connected binary files to the new book location folder on Kindle
5. rename copied book-connected binary files on Kindle to make their basename match with the new book basename on the Kindle
