Remove Books
I am having formatting problems with multiple books in my library. I want to completely clear all of them and start fresh. How would i go about getting rid of all the books without having to remove them one at a time from the reader?

If you're using calibre, just highlight them and hit "Remove books".

If using the Sony Ebook Library, open the library. Go to a list view of your books. Select the lot. (Put the cursor on the first book. Press the return key, then scroll to the bottom book and click. This selects the lot.) Then click on edit/delete.
You should then be able to reimport the lot without duplicates by going to file/import files or file/import folder. |

If you really want to start from scratch select Settings, then Advanced Settings, then Format Internal Memory on your 505.

No, I wasn't joking! The way this was written, I didn't think it was clear that the OP was to delete the list from the Reader, not just from Calibre.
Gave my heart a jolt just to read it, so I thought I'd offer a clarification, in case I wasn't the only one who read it that way. |
