Thanks very much for this. I don't completely understand this last part. The metadata is all still good on my device (I haven't yet plugged it into the laptop while Calibre is running). So, do you mean that, for some reason, the metadata is not present in the backup I made (just a straightforward copy-and-paste from the device, including the whole file structure), even though it's in the original files on the device? In that case, is there a way of transferring it directly from the device into the Calibre library, by plugging in the device while Calibre is running (which I've so far avoided!) rather than using my local backup of the device data?
Apologies if this question reveals me as a tech. bumpkin... !
