I've reset a few times doesn't seem to help.

I'm at a loss here. I tried copying to the SD card and loading from there--but it has the same problem with the same books just showing up in both storage locations and the same ones not showing up at all.

What I have noticed is that for the books that won't show up some of the files are 0 kb. i.e. for the Amazon books the .azw file is 0 kb, but the mbp file has size listed. For the free feedbooks the .mobi files are 0kb (and are the only file). Where as the amazon books still showing up have file size for both the .azw and the .mbp files.

So could the files have gotten corrupted somehow?

Am I out of look and just need to buy the book I was reading that the owner left on their and redownload the feedbooks ones?
