Oh my, people, Thanks for the quick and great responses.

I did think about using a plugin to swap author and title after the fact, It just feels a bit like fixing an issue rather then preventing it in the first place. It is an option I will look into. It does seem the author vs. title swap is the most common issue.

I also have Bulk Rename and use it from time to time. Currently I am downloading and adding a bunch of books in a series one at a time. Bulk Rename works best when doing, well, a bulk of renames. But, I guess I can change my errant ways.

The "Quick Preferences" idea sounds like pretty good option. I thought about saving the preferences in a text file and doing a copy and paste. I may do as I can put a description to remind me what each does.

Thanks, Mark.
