On Device Indicator

jemsurvey · 01-15-2012, 07:08 AM

Calibre has a column when the device is plugged in which lets you know which books are on the device. When I first add them to the library it works fine. The next time I connect the kindle it does not check the column for all the books on the device, some yes but not all. Why would that be? I can only think that since having downloaded additional metadata it may not now recognize the book as being the same. Anything to do about this.

Thanks,
John

Most likely you changed the author and/or title of the book(s).

So now it's a 'different' book, and no, there's not much you can do short of deleting the kindle copy and sending the calibre copy to the kindle.
