I'm working on two Kindle Keyboards, call them 3Ga and 3Gb. Using Collection Manager on 3Gb, I renamed all my collections with a leading underscore as recommended, and moved around all the books the way I wanted them. Everything was beautiful. Instead of doing the same thing on 3Ga, I tried loading the collections from 3Gb. I got a mix of collections with and without underscores, and there were some missing. I deleted all collections from 3Ga. I did a Sync & Check for Items on 3Gb, and tried again. Same results. I deleted all collections from 3Ga again. I restarted 3Gb, then did another Sync & Check for Items and tried loading collections one more time. Same results. I gave up and redid 3Ga manually using Collection Manager. But... it SHOULD have worked, shouldn't it? Did I do something wrong?

Thanks in advance.
