calibre creates collection on Sony PRS700 but does not transfer book into it
I have to start using Calibre for my file transfers to my Sony Reader 700 since my reader library software is not working anymore (very frustrating). I tagged a book with a collection title and transferred the book from Calibre to my reader. The book transferred to my reader OK (I can see it from "Books" and open it from there), and Calibre created the correct collection folder but it did not transfer the actual book to the collection. The folder reads "no books" in the collection. What happened here and how can I get this fixed?

Also, question 2...can books that are already on the reader be transferred from the reader to Calibre and if so, how is this done? or is it just one way from Calibre to the reader only? |

Update...I had an older version of Calibre on my desktop. I downloaded fresh the newest version of Calibre on my laptop, imported all of my Sony library into it, then sent the book I was trying to download to the reader previously to the Sony reader and IT created the correct collection AND put the book into it properly! I then transferred another book to that collection on the reader and it worked too! So...it looks like I will be using Calibre instead of the reader software (which won't open on my desktop at all, and which now hangs and freezes my laptop each time I try to connect my device to it). I will redownload all of my prior Sony LRX books to the new epub format and transfer them to calibre.
