The Recent Sorting Option does NOT work (PW) - Page 2

BobKat · 01-09-2013, 07:50 AM

I synced, it set me up with a time that was about 6 hours and 20 minutes different from my time. Then I adjusted it for my local time. It proceeded to sort by recent title normally for the first batch I loaded.
Then everything went haywire again and I was seeing the most recent book from before my 700 item mark. I then was trying to get recent by sorting by title/author and cycling back to sort by recent. It would pick up one of the recent titles.

So still a problem although I am almost done loading the kindle so it may not be a big deal now. I have only a handful left so I can find them with search. I'm glad I sorted the prolific authors early in the game. I certainly wouldn't want to try to find 50 titles by searching.

I will try to resync again. Should I leave it on wifi for a long time? I had it on for about 5 minutes before.

Well, on my PW, the books I put in a collection where removed from my device, and i had to re-download them from the cloud.

Perhaps you accidentally deleted them? I guarantee you that the act of adding books to a collection does NOT in itself delete them

It should indeed not...
I'll try it again, the next time I finish my book, and see what happens.
