Delete collections created with calibre
How can i delete the collections created in the ereader with calibre, when the tags are filled? Because, although I delete the reader with tags, the collections follow appear in the reader.
thanks |

I have this issue too. I am selling the eReader and am trying to reset the machine back to factory...or as near as. Can't get the collections to delete. There's not a single book on the reader, but I want the new owner to have a fresh start.
Tried Calibre and there's no way to find the collections in Calibre, they're only showing on the reader itself. Any ideas? |

Of course you could just go to advanced settings and format internal memory. This will give it a clean start. |

The following is more drastic but should work. 1. Delete all books from the device. 2. Deleting the media.xml file (\\database\cache\) (will remove all bookmarks, history and collections). 3. Use Calibre to transfer the books back to the device will give you a fresh set of collections. |

There is, of course, also the fallback option of using the Sony Library software to delete unwanted collections.

Formatting the internal memory (from the PRS Utilities menu) must be the best way to achieve this without any danger of leaving anything behind.
