Okay, I'm having an issue, and it's most likely a simple solution, but I know if I work at it too much longer I'm going to get frustrated, so I figured I'd just ask.
I'm trying to reorganize the collections on my Kindle 4th generation, so that I can import them to my new paperwhite in the order I want and not have to jailbreak it (at least for now :P )
So I originally had 20 collections on the kindle, I have 28 now in Calibre, but when I go to preview before syncing to my kindle, it only deletes 12 of the collections on the kindle, replaces 8, and creates 8 new ones. So instead of my 28 new collections, I'd be down to 16. I'm guessing this has something to do with how my collections are named, so let's get some screen shots and reports for you.

I appreciate any help you can give. I'm going to put the problem down for a couple hours and see if a solution comes to me when I stop thinking about it before I ruin what I've already done trying to fix it. lol.
