1. i only put .mobi and .pdf files on my kindle 2
2. i use mobidedrm on amazon purchased books
3. since amazon-purchased topaz files cannot be decrypted and converted they go on the kindle as purchased.
4. i reported to kovid, as a bug, a situation the was not a bug
5. the problem was that the kindle sorted, in author mode, differently than the kindle 2.
6. kovid helped me solve my problem.
thanks kovid!!
so the only problem that still exists is that the two topaz books that i own still don't sort on the kindle as they do in calibre. they sort by the author's first name even though i set the author sort to "last"name, first name"
any suggestions for a fix.
thanks for for authoring and maintaing calibre, kovid.
