eBook Transfer
I use Calibre to transfer my ebooks to my reading device. I have 9 free ebooks from Ruth Ann Nordin. After I transferred to my device, I did a search for this author. The books showed up in Calibre and when I looked at the SD Card only 4 books showed up through Calibre. However, when I looked at the actual SD Card all 9 ebooks were there.

Why is Calibre not showing all the ebooks on the card?

On the reading device all 9 ebooks show up under her name. None are in the unknown folder.

I'm guessing Calibre is showing all nine but Calibre uses the author_sort field to sort. This field isn't viewable in the Library view. So 4 might be sorted by Ruth and the other 5 sorted by Nordin. Check each book via the edit metadata information window and ensure the author_sort field is the same on each ebook.
