(The devices are different - one is a Touch, the other is the new Paperwhite - but the issue is identical.)

I am experiencing the same thing now on a Kindle touch which I have had for a few months with no problems. But today, after I spent all morning creating new collections, my home page no longer displays like it used to.

I.E. when, as usual, I Filter by "all items" and Sort by "collections" the toolbar reads

Code:

My Items (39) ⬇ Collections ⬇                                 1 of 5 ⬇

And only the 39 collections are listed. If I choose to sort by anything else, all 676 items are displayed, with the books/docs coming first, and the collections on the last 5 pages, e.g.

Code:

My Items (676) ⬇ Author ⬇                                     1 of 85 ⬇

Up until a few hours ago, the first sorting method would have resulted in a list of my 39 collections followed by any books/docs that had not yet been added to a collection. Now I have no easy way of seeing which files have yet to be collected...

I have tried "Sync and Check for Items" and a hard reboot, but it hasn't worked.
