Amazon books don't show as on device
On my K3, I have the original Amazon files on the device (otherwise, they'd show up in the archive) and I've imported all the books into Calibre (via K4PC files). For some reason, though, only some of my Amazon books appear as "on device" when the K3 is connected.

Any ideas about why this is happening, or how to fix it, would be appreciated. It's hard to use Calibre to manage what's on the K3 when what's actually there is not reflected accurately.

On device matching is done by title and author, if the title and author of the version in your calibre library is different then it wont match. You can work around this by deleting the books from your Kindle and resending them with calibre.
