Why won't the Jeffery Deaver books all go into the one folder? They all have the correct spelling in the metadata thing.
When I see the list of authors they all have a number next to it signifying how many books by that particular author, but I have 14 Jeffery Deaver books and they are all listed individually.
Hope I have explained this to you so someone understands lol
Thanks xxx

Look
very closely.
Very minor
appearing differences will cause that:
extra spaces, missing space, underscore used
different punctuation
Different Capital letter (mixed case) usage.
Now for the simple
Fix
Select all the books by that Author.
Click Edit Metadata (bulk Mode)
tick the set Author sort box.
(Use this Trick needed for Windows or Case insensitive file systems, or it may not fix all of them)
Select a Version of the Authors name you Like.
ADD A Letter or Number to the END
Save
Now select all those books again.
Select the Author Name Again
and Remove the extra letter.
Again, tick set author sort
Save. Done
