Hi,
I use a couple of programs to manage my non-DRM e-book collection. I use Calibre on Windows and Calibre Companion on Android. Both are good at passing the e-book to ADE and ADE copies the e-book to the My Digital Editions or Digital Editions folders on Windows and Android. Having the e-book resident in these folders allows me to make annotations and highlights to the e-book which go into the annotations folder.
The issue that I encounter on both the Windows and Android platforms is when I attempt to open an e-book via a program which in turn activate ADE and the e-book is already present in the My Digital Editions or Digital editions folders, then ADE will create a new copy of the e-book in the folder. What this does is cause me to loose my annotations and highlighting from the last reading session with the e-book.
I don't know why ADE does this. What would make sense is to have ADE check to see if the e-book is already present in the My Digital Editions or Digital Editions folder and if so, then just open the existing copy and not create a new one.
I don't understand why ADE was created with this kind of functionality or what the purpose of it is.
If anyone can provide some insight and/or any thoughts about this I would be very appreciative.
Thank you all for your posts.
Regards,
Jim Savitz

Same issue and concern right here. Can anyone give us some ideas on how this works, why or what to do to avoid or work around it?
