PRS-T1 Strange T1 behaviour ....

carpetmojo · 03-23-2012, 06:21 PM

Bit odd - I had a book loaded from Gutenberg, read it, fine , been keeping it on as it is a real eyeopener in a way (Traits of the Irish Peasantry", when I noticed I had two copies. I "Deleted" one of them - or thought I had !
I then noticed that the book(s) were both being "removed" , and taking a long time to do so - but not just the strange double entry that I don't know about, but the another 5 copies that seem to have migrated in without me doing anything !
Currently 11 hours and all are being " removed" still - or not, should we say.....

Any ideas out there please ?

I have had this same thing happen for non-Sony Store books I have sideloaded. I ended up deleting the book database on the reader and letting it recreate. That fixed it for a little bit but I had to do it a second time for another book.

Has the T1 been properly ejected by Calibre or the OS?

Sorry JS, but, umm... ejected? You mean disconnected safely/correctly ? if so yes, I'm sure.

And....

" .......I ended up deleting the book database on the reader and letting it recreate. That fixed it for a little bit ..........."

Way above my knowledge base - I think !
Would I, Mr. TechDunce, be safe trying to do this ?
And how, which is even more to the point !
