Brand new to Calibre and I don't have a clue what I am doing

I am well known for saying about myself that to computer is an arcane gnosis the mysteries of which have yet to be vouchsafed unto me and that is once again proven true with Calibre and even this forum. I feel like I need a forum to learn how to use this forum effectively.

HELP!! Please. :help:

OK.. I have a MacBook Air, OSX Yosemite aka 10.10.5; I have the newest version of Calibre. I also have a Kindle Keyboard.

First problem: Under the Amazon choices, Kindle Keyboard is not listed. So does that mean I choose "generic e-reader" even though I don't think my e-reader is generic?

Well, I did that. Opened Calibre and started to read the Quick Start Guide and I need someone to translate this into Luddite English, please.:help:

I want to add books. I thought from the video that when I clicked on "add books" that it would bring up a dialogue box where I would type in author and title but instead it is taking me to a finder window.

What as I doing wrong? :blink:

Thank you in advance for your help.

Also, I have no idea what is meant by "tags," or how to "tag." See? Hopeless Luddite
