ok - after more testing, i think i got it to work - but its a confusing process, to change the default download folder and get the change to stick
About the characters appending to book title in downloaded files, they are actually book UUID.
ok - but it would be better to make that a user controlled toggle. My use case is that I only have one library, and i much prefer that the filenames on every device match those in the master library
in the case where I have scanned in one song from a music book, then named the scanned PDF suitably, how is the UUID being generated. because there is no actual UUID capture in that workflow:
[ I scan selected music book pages on PC, open scanned pdf, type in title and author into [blank fields in ] document properties, save again... add to calibre... use sync to get a copy of the song music from there onto target tablet(s)
if i delete the on device file, then later I change my mind and download it again, will it get same appended UUID as before, or not ?
It is our design choice to make the download filename unique in download directory. The use case, for example, is that users might have multiple libraries point to a single download location, keeping only book title might have a chance of clashing name. If you manage your library from Calibre Sync app, it should understand the file name pattern correctly.
Hope that helps 
yes, thanks

We will make the option to toggle download filename pattern available in future versions of the app
