I don't sync everything I own onto it. I don't want to & I don't need to. I found it easy to use the Reader Library & happily did so. I cannot figure out how the heck to get the new Reader for PC to manually put specific books on it within the collections I have made onto my reader. It's all or nothing. Once the reader itself has synced with the computer I cannot delete within a collection or the collection itself. I can delete the book from the main Books category on the reader but then am left with a bunch of empty collections that I can't do anything with. I can't delete them or rename them or anything. It's been classed as being synced so I can't touch it. Ok so then shouldn't I be able to manage the collection on the reader through the software to delete or rename or whatever? Apparently not!
I know I'm being silly but I deauthorized the thing removed all the software for the new T1 from the computer & packed it back up ready to go back to the store. I don't want everything I own on the fool thing! I have a ton of books that I want to read. I don't want them mixed up with ones I've already read.
I found the help files to be useless. They say you can drag & drop but if you do the information probably won't display properly. Well, isn't that nice! lol eesh.
I don't know....maybe I'll try again but it shouldn't be this frustrating to want an enjoyable reading experience. I only have 13 days left to get my money back on the thing. I also found the touch to not be as responsive as the 350 and I abhor the black flashing of the refresh. I found it to be quite jarring. The flash on the 350 doesn't bother me. The flash when reading a book on the T1 doesn't bother me but when I'm on the browser trying to find a book or trying to organize the books on the reader, OMG it gives me a headache.
I suffer from migraines from a fractured skull years ago and I can't handle the black flashing all the time even when trying to look at the books in cover format over list format. It's quite jarring, at least to me anyways.  |
I don't get your problem. Drag + drop works just as well as syncing through software - in fact I just connected my T1 to my wifes laptop, didn't want to sync all the books that were in the software, so I dragged/dropped to the device itself (accessible from My Computer) the few books I wanted - and after disconnecting and letting them load for a few seconds - there they were, covers and all!
