Send covers to books already on Kindle
I have a bunch of books on my Kindle that I transferred directly from an older Kindle rather than from Calibre. Unfortunately, none of them have the covers they do on the older device. Is there a way to send the covers via Calibre, or do I need to delete the books from the Kindle and resend from Calibre to get the covers?

Try deleting one of the books and resending it to see if you get the cover showing.

I want to keep the formatting of the books already on the device, so I want to avoid resending from Calibre if possible. I just want to have the books already on the device have the correct covers, if possible. If it's not possible, then no problem.

Why would resending reformat? This assumes 1)You sent a Kindle format. 2)You did not NOW require only KFX be sent (old was AZW3).

OTOH If send' Auto converts' from some other format, yes it is possible differences will appear if you have also changed the defaults in Preferences
