Question disappearing books and other things...

Hello to everyone!

First of all, thanks for Calibre
I adore this program!!

I'd like to point out some problems that I have: (I'm using the most recent version..)


first: updating Calibre from the old version, I lost some books from the library... And in more than one occasion.
As the books disappearing seem to be random, I never know which ones are missing.. Is it a usual problem? Am I the only one with this problem? Is it possible to solve it?
(example: before the upgrade i had 1530 books, after I have 1525.)

The second point is a request: in Calibre is possible to order the books by author. Is it possible to upgrade the order adding inside the "author" folder a subfolder with the series?
For example:
Folder: Nalini Singh
Subfolders:
Changelings series
Angels series
Others
Folder: Terry Brooks
Subfolders:
Shannara series
Word and Void trilogy
Landover trilogy
Others
and so on.


third: My Calibre doesn't convert from .doc or .docz extensions. and I have lots of books in those formats waiting to be converted.


fourth and last :
when I add a book with no metadata, I download the metadata from the internet.
How can I add the metadata to the book, short of reconverting the book in the same format?

(if some of my questions are unclear, please, tell me, and i'll try to explain better. I'm italian, so explaining thing in english is difficult for me...)


Thank you very much!!

Chiara
