Hi all!

So, as of last week I'm now the proud owner of a shiny new Sony Reader PRS-505.

I'd first like to quickly thank all of you who replied to my pre-purchase n00b thread, you all provided valuable and helpful information and I very much appreciate it.

Anyway, on to my new (and undoubtedly first of many) annoying n00b question.

I've got Libprs set up, even to the point where I can retrieve ISBN data and Covers through the program, but I can't seem to get them to save to the reader.

Can I open a file, any LRF for example, retrieve the info and cover, and then drag it on to the memory card from the reader?

I think maybe I'm missing something; every time I do just that the new information just seems to be lost. Generally I remove the card and plug it into a card reader in the PC, but I've tried plugging in the reader directly and it has the same result.

A little help?

I have LRF files on there that have the cover and info already down; I just want to quickly edit those that are wrong and be done with it.

Thanks in advance, once again.

Sincerely,

Alex.
