i stand by my words. calibres over whiting the cache on the ereader did the same as hiting delete. it made the content invisible to the end user.

as i said calibres new found inability to play nice with the use of other programmes too makes it unusable to me. after it doing it no less than 4 times i gave up and went back to an old version.

have you actually tried it yourself, create some sets with sonys ereader library and see how well calibre plays nice

I said it never deleted a file without being told and you just agreed with me.

Due to a hitch not being detected during beta testing, during a short window of time, if a book didn't have a tag associated with it then the book would not end up in a collection. If the book had 9 tags associated with it then it would end up in 9 collections either way the book would still be listed under books by title, books by author or books by date.

This statement while accurate for a short time, hasn't been the case for some time now. You should test out 0.7.6.

No, I don't dispute there was a problem. That problem though was corrected. Why you continue to harp on something long past is beyond me.

A word to the wise for anyone else reading this thread, using two software packages to manage your books is never a good idea.

If you're happy with the Sony software then by all means use that software, but to keep stating inaccuracies like

"calibres new found inability to play nice"

long after the error has been corrected is again voicing ignorance. Stop living in the past.

harp on? it you who is clutching at straws saying noo it didnt delete anything just removed everything see thats not the same thing.

at the time i originally posted on the issue there was no fix and it was being touted as a calibre knows better than you end user, its a feature not a bug so get used to it.

god whats with the hostility and confrontational nature? i wasnt saying calibre is shit just that that new feature (which has supposedly been removed) made it unusable for me. im i not allowed to say i dont like something?
