Send New Books To Device
Hi
I am using Calibre but can't find out how to send newly added books to my device. I know I can select them but if I add lots of books in one go, how can I just send those books ? Thanks Stu |

If you want to keep track of which ones you've loaded on your device and which you haven't, just apply a tag named something like [loaded] to the books in your library once you've transferred them, and then when you've added new books to your library, you simply have to select those that don't have a [loaded] tag, and those are the ones you need to transfer.

Version 0.7 tries hard to tell you which books in your library are also on your device. When you plug in the device, a column titled 'On Device' appears. Calibre puts a check in this column on each book that it could determine is in the library. The other way is also true; there is a column in the device (or card) view that indicates whether a given book is also in the library.

It could be the case that if someone ran 6.92 or 6.93, the column would remain at the far right even when the later beta releases are installed. It would be easy not to notice it out there. I remember dragging the column to the far left at some point. |

To find the list of books not on the device, you can sort and select the lines with blank ondevice Alternatively, and more general, you can search for ondevice:xxx. The latter permits you to combine the query with other queries, such as 'tag:coolbook and date:>= 2010 and ondevice:false' to get books you marked as cool, added this year, and not currently on the reader or any of its cards. NB: searching the ondevice column appears in 0.7.0, which should be released soon. Sorting appeared in 0.6.94. |
