Books don't actually "enter" collections. rather they have the label of also belonging to that collection of books have the label "Whatever". IIRC
So this is a calibre import-export question really. Looks like the tags are getting mushed together. I have never used this for/with Calibre export but recall something about either custom fields being missing, or being needed to be setup. Sorry that is all I can dredge. I'm not even 100% about that... I recall Niluje and Ixtab chatting about this (or a very similar) subject a while ago, perhaps they will have something actually helpful to add. |

Yeah, it might be on the calibre plugin side, since running "Preview collections" does show something like: Code:
Collections saved to the Kindle: Collection Managed By Books Change ---------- ---------- ----- ------ 0n Deck Calibre 2 Replaced (from column Collection) 0n Deck,Honor Harrington Calibre 1 Created (from column Collection) |

I could be utterly wrong. but wasn't there a calibre plugin done for this? again I never used it, not even once but I could swear others were chatting about it.
EDIT: Doesn't this pertain to your issue: Notes on Calibre Synchronization: Quote:

Never mind. Posted too soon, sorry.
"Edit Kindle collections manually" in the calibre plugin does what I want. I was editing my custom Collection column and recreating collections on the Kindle. (hides Collection column) |

Loving this!
Errr. Multiple collections work in the plugin. I thought I chose the comma-separated text type for the collections column, but when I (eventually) checked it, it was just a regular text column.
I think I'm getting the hang of all this, though... I now have a workflow (using Collections, Goodreads, Reading List, and Manage Series) that ends with book titles like
in my "To Read" collection. Thanks guys! Now where's that Paypal button..? |

@dirgeon, twobob: thanks, guys!
But if you can, please donate to http://www.laosliteracyproject.org/ directly. All the donations that I receive will go to that project anyway - but if you donate directly, Paypal will only profit once (instead of twice), and more money will arrive where it's really needed. |

FYI: I just sent another $80 to the Laos Literacy Project, all of which were gathered from your donations. In total, that's more than $250 - for a really good and worthy cause. Thank you all!

I only just got my PW and I was wondering whether I was going to bother with jailbreak for this one. I did it for my Kindle Keyboard and only actually bothered to use the screensaver hack.
But this looks like a pretty good reason to jailbreak. |

Jailbreak problem
I really need help. I simply cannot push that button for 2 seconds. It does not detect my touch.

Second: check that your firmware is 5.2.0, 5.3.0, or 5.3.1 (Settings - Device Info). If it's newer, downgrade. That is all documented in the jailbreak thread. If you keep having problems, please ask in the correct thread. |
