Hi, a bit of a strange one.

I turned wireless on this morning to get some new books I'd ordered from Amazon. The books came down fine, but all my collections had gone. Restarted, no change. Connected to PC and looked at the .json file, it was empty (file size zero).

Fortunately I'd done a full backup a couple of weeks ago, so I loaded the .json from that, then re-did the few moves I'd made since.

So, I'm back in operation now, but would rather like to know what happened. Just one of those things? Something I did? Something Amazon did?

For certain, I'm going to copy the .json file immediately before turning wireless on again!
