All my shelves were made by hand, and when the Glo was synced with the Kobo server they came in to the reader. I don't use Calibre with my Touch because years ago I did once and had to factory reset it right afterwards. It seems that was a fault in Calibre, but I've never risked it again. I tried it with the Glo because I figured if it messed it up I could just do a reset without having to reinstall all my books and shelves.

The .config file has the sort set to newest first, which doesn't seem right as I deleted 1/2 the shelves and created new ones. But those were out of order even in creation order.

Sorry, I should say that after I created the shelves on the Touch last year after updating, I sync'd the Touch with Kobo servers and they stored my Shelf names and settings. So when I sync with their servers they send me the shelf names. Or are supposed to, anyway.
