Hi,

I used mobi2mobi to change the meta data on a book I purchased from Amazon and it seems like my Kindle is no longer able to index the book. I had it on the Kindle for at least 4 days and when I tried to do a search in the book today, it said the book had not yet been indexed. I downloaded the original from my archives and within 5 min, it was indexed and I was able to search thru it.

This is the mobi2mobi command I ran:
mobi2mobi "Nineteen Eighty Four 1984 by Geo-asin_B001MCBEU0-type_EBOK-v_0.azw" --outfile "Nineteen Eighty Four.azw" --author "Orwell, George"

This it the book: http://www.amazon.com/Nineteen-Eight...8634695&sr=1-1

Any ideas? Anyone else run into this issue?

I have not run into this with any other book, but all my other books are public domain books from feedbooks etc.

-Tina
