If any apologies are needed it's from me. I wasn't intending to suggest you had been offensive. You called it "that post", so I repeated that. And the rest was me trying to find out where it went wrong.

Clearly, if others can, the problem is *my* fault, not the fault of the instructions. I have no idea what the problem is, I followed what I understood to be correct.
The most commonly missed step in the instructions is the one about setting "Metadata management" to automatic on the "Sending books to devices" page of the calibre preferences. I don't know why people miss it, but at least half the people who say they have done the configuration properly but don't have collection created have missed this.

If this is done, you can take screenshots of the driver configuration and post them. Or run calibre in debug mode and post a log. From the log I can usually see what is going wrong. To do this, right-click on the preferences button and select "Restart in debug" mode. Calibre will restart. The connect the device and wait for the device connection jobs to finish. Then close calibre and the debug log will be displayed. Post the full contents, or PM them to me if you would prefer.

i then use Calibre (without a doubt one of the best freeware Programs ever written) along with the Kobo Ouput Plugin (2.3.3) to convert the books from epub to kepub and send them to my Kobo Mini and then i copy them from the root of the Mini onto the Micro SD cards.

then i use only card 1 to put them on my Kobo Aura 6" and also my Kobo Touch, they then process the content, but and it's a big but when i put card 2 in either the Aura or the Touch the books are already processed and also include the bookmarks etc.
I've had a play today and it seems like you have discovered a bug in the firmware. It appears that the id of the SD card is not being recorded against sideloaded kepubs like it is for all other formats. Including purchased kepubs. That means the kepubs that have been sideoaded to the SD card are not being treated in the same way as all other formats.

David, I wonder what happens with Kobo purchased and synced kepubs when main storage is full, and they are downloaded to the SD card?

ok, does this bug only exist in fw 3.16.0? or is it in all fw versions.

They are downloaded to the SD card. I had to force that to happen when I was testing over the weekend. And that's why I know only sideloaded kepubs don't have the SD card id recorded against them.

One thing I have to check is what happens to the purchased kepubs on the SD card if I eject it. I forgot to check when changing the cards.

I was testing with more recent firmware. I'd be pretty sure it is in all firmware since Kobo started recording an id for the SD card. But, I have no real interest in testing older firmware.
