I'm afraid your suggestion for ordering books by Author surname does not work on my Sony 650, jackie_w. Is there anything else I can do?
If you had calibre configured to manage your Sony metadata automatically. This should have worked just by connecting the device to calibre. If it isn't set to manage Sony metadata automatically then deleting all books and resending them should work.

Good Luck.
