I missed the other plug in selecting my default reader, now it is connecting.

I didn't have the help screen open in my browser, so after I saw the 10 free books in the default library, I selected one and didn't figure out how to get it into Calibre, so I selected "Show me how this works" in my Calibre connector on my iPad. I guess the iPad doesn't multi-task well, as that disconnected. So I went back to Calibre and it connected again, and found the help from Calibre's plug in.

So I read that page trying to discover how to get those 10 books over to Calibre. That page mentions synchronization, but I'm just not seeing how to tell it to synchronize either way.

Ahh, I found out how to get a book from Calibre to Marvin - I click on the book and then the "Send to device" button. It is now in my Marvin Library.

Then I found out how to get a book from Marvin to Calibre - right click the book. Maybe this post will help others to figure it out more easily.
