Calibre should Discover the Kindle (it will show a connected to message on the status line).
The first time, it may take some time for the initial Inventory of books found on the device. (The job wheel on the Calibre Status line will be active).
Once that is completed (normally) later connections should happen pretty fast.
Select 1 or more books: Use the icon with the big arrow to send to device.
Not the location of the icons I show are where I moved them.
The Icon with the word Kindle is the Device View icon, that lets you see the USERS files (those not in protected areas).
Right click either icon: Eject when done sending (important)
That is it

Yep, this. I'm aware that your Kindle is not being detected by your computer, but this has nothing to do with Amazon having disabled sideloading, as the customer service told you. Amazon has not disabled sideloading, the customer rep was wrong. Your problem with the Kindle not being detected is caused by something else.
