Return to ebooks in Folders

hidari · 02-20-2010, 07:02 PM

Well,

My ebooks sans folders was terminated as of last nite. My PP developed a personality and refused to remember bookmarks or even where the last page that I had been reading was located.

So, put back the Folders and all is well......

Advice : use the folders even though it takes another button push.....ugh.

Do you know how many entries before things started falling apart?

about 30 books but not sure of clusters and all the tech side of it...sorry not a tech person just a pleb.....

30 is way short of where I would have guessed problems might happen.

Clusters are internal (smallest) chunks that can be used to store a file portion and are only a concern if the majority of your files are really small and the cluster was configured large.
1 byte past a cluster size, results in another whole cluster being used. Just inefficient use of storage, not a problem otherwise.
Bookmarks do not work well with file names withe spaces (Known issue).
File_name not File name

A heads up, if you rename the book's filenames, then bookmarks will get lost and not save properly. Not sure if you did that or not, but that's one cause.
