At least with removing the original ebooks and magazines I can clear up some space on my laptop. and I think I will need to change the titles with the editing meta data area rather then the "Using file name to create title" after all the title is also the file name. So I think I will need to type each and every bad title and then rename each title. Which will be time consuming but there is a idea I have for that which I use to take recipes out of my older mail order magazines. "I use the speak feature in gmail on my android phone and I email myself recipes" I read it out loud and then once each recipe is down I send myself a email. That way it only takes me minutes in stead of hours of time writing down each recipe or typing each recipe.
So all I will have to do is the same but for the ebook names.
Plus I have another quick question. How do I make categories for the ebooks and magazines for example if I want a category called "How To" how would I make that a category? Would I use tags and the just name each tag by the category I want to put each book or magazine into.
*Plus I want to also organize from ebook to magazine. If this is possible how do I do this.
