Hi
First, I noticed that if I change the sort title on the PC version, nothing changes on the Android version. It’s a real problem if the two versions don’t sync. Is there a specific step I need to take, or are these changes handled only locally?
Second, I tried to start organizing my collection on Android. I select "Edit" and change the sort title, but I can’t save the change—clicking "Update" does nothing. I noticed that the collection number is set to "-1"; if I change it to "1," the "Update" button becomes functional. That’s strange, isn’t it?
Third: even when I manage to do this, the software tells me that some titles are "locked," preventing me from applying updates. I’m not trying to contribute to a shared database—I just want to organize my own personal collection. This doesn’t happen on the PC version.
In short, I use an Android smartphone, an Android tablet, and two PCs. I certainly don’t want to have to perform this sorting process four separate times for 2,000 titles.
Is there something I need to do to get all these devices to sync properly?
Thanks a lot for your answer

Where are you changing? Personal preferences for sort title should ONLY be changed in the personal data area - that syncs directly. Changes to global data requires contribution for it to sync, and that may NOT be personal preferences, but per contribution guidelines. Having trouble installing or upgrading to My Movies 5?

On PC:  On Android:  After, I save but without contributing. The ranking is subjective. Some want to put LA HAINE while others prefer HAINE, LA. So, am I not using the right method? I tried via the personal data section, but after clicking "OK", the film doesn't move back to the "T" category for " The Nightingale".  However, if I do it on Android, it works.

The change to your personal sort title should absolutely affect the sorting in Windows - I will check this. However, you should not in any situation edit the global sorting title for personal preferences. The personal data area, on Windows, or on Android is the place to place this. The data in the global part must always follow the contribution guidelines, no matter which personal preference you may have. Having trouble installing or upgrading to My Movies 5?
