Thanks for moving my post to this forum.

I've just ploughed through the 287 entry Sony PRS T1 on calibre thread. I didn't see any entries which dealt with my query - though I only understood about one word in three - so I thought I'd add some information to the background.

Not knowing any better I just plugged my T1 to my computer and opened calibre. Version 8.2.4 recognised the reader without problem, and I sent a few ebooks to the reader without problem. I do not have an SD card installed. I do not, so far as I know use plugins, and use default settings. I've since downloaded and installed some of HarryTs Jane Austen Books, and the way he does them made them sort by Author Last Name.

But I have a lot of books in my calibre library, and do not want to have to change the settings to make them sort on my T1 the way they do on my 650.

Is there a way of fixing this?
