When you disconnected the device did display a "Processing new content" message?

Which directory if any on the Touch did you send them to? Any files placed in a directory with a . starting the directory name (e.g. .kobo ) or any directory below such a directory will not be processed.

Doesn't Calibre already know by the make and model of the eReader where to send the books? I've only ever seen "Send to Main Memory" -- no choices for directory.(?)

The driver has a save template. This is used to set the full path of the book on the device. It can use any of the books metadata or fixed strings.
