Hi I have been using calibre for a while and know that title and title sort are made identical by putting in strictly alphabetical order in the tweaks. But unfortunately after migrating to a new laptop a. The title sort is omitting leading characters and when trying to do manually shows up pink. Also a new column is showing up saying device. Could it be because i have synced to a cloud and how to suppress it?tia

Not in that image

Changing the Title SORT does not make changes to existing book records

Select ALL THOSE, tap 'E' (bulk mode metadata edit): Tick the Update Titlesort box (near the middle): OK

@pinky62 - wrong tweak, that one is about Save to Disk and Send to Device templates.

try setting this tweak to "strictly_alphabetic'
