Tidying Up My Kindle

Hi, I have been using a Kindle for a long time, just discovered Calibre. The contents of my Kindle is a real mess, some books not attributed to the correct author, some with no covers etc. I've downloaded all my books into Calibre and used it to edit the metadata and add covers and generally tidy everything up.

Now my question: what's the easiest way to load all these edited books back onto the Kindle without duplicating everything?

It will mean having to do your collections again, but you could just connect your kindle in Calibre, delete all the copies on your Kindle and then copy the new lit files back to it.

It should recognize the Kindle when you plug it in by USB.
