Hi, I'm a longtime user of the old Mobilesheets, and recently upgraded to the new Mobilesheets Pro. Here are two problems I've run into:
1) When I transferred all of my old files from Mobilesheets to Mobilesheets Pro, I did a database backup/export in the old app and imported it into the new. It mostly when well, except for songs that had the same title. For example, I have a couple different Real Books (split into individual song PDFs), and some of the same song titles are in both books. In the old app, I had both imported just fine, saved to separate files. When I imported the database, wherever there was a shared song title, the new app chose one file and replaced all the other songs with the same PDF. It has been somewhat arbitrary, too, as to which file is chosen as the master file to wipe out the others.
I don't quite understand how the songs all existed together just fine in the old app, but were overwitten by the new app.
2) I just tried to add another collection of songs tonight (about 400) via the batch import, and when I did so, it failed on every song, except for ones that matched titles for already existing songs from other books I have loaded. In those cases it overwrote the files from other books with the new ones (not what I wanted to do). So I tried to batch import again and made sure to uncheck "Update songs if matching files are found." This time, all the songs in the folder being imported failed.
Now, interestingly, when I go to the folder in my device storage (internal, not SD, and the default path Mobilesheets Pro sets), all 400 of those songs are there. There are folders for all of them, with PDFs within all of them (well, at least the random ones I checked of the 400). However, none of them show up in the app.
I'm running Android 3.1.10 on an Asus TF300 with Mobilesheets Pro 1.1.8
