Thanks both. In desperation, I copied the calibre book directory thenI deleted all books (over 600) from Calibre (Kindle not connected). I've reinstalled an old (7.nn) version. I then added all books again. This has given me the result that all the spurious collections have disappeared (hurrah!) but the menu item is still greyed out. When I connect the Kindle, it correctly shows all the installed books but not the collections which are on the kindle.

I'll try number 2 from theducks but where do I find the file?

I'm always in aeroplane mode (ie no wifi) as I don't use amazon.
