Sony ereader help

Ive just bought a Sony 505 ereader.
When I'm in the readers library the tiltles & the authors are all muddled up. I've read the directions but I can't seem to find the answer.
Help would be appreciated

    A good thing to do is download and use Calibre for all your e-books. It's a lot better at organising your metadata/tags than the Sony software.

    http://calibre-ebook.com/download

    It's also very good at pulling in and downloading any of hundreds of newspapers/magazines onto your Reader free of cost.
    I shot a vein in my neck and coughed up a Quaalude.

    Thanks Dreamnine, I've got calibre, it came on a memory stick from the person I bought the ereader from.

    When you're in Media Player you can change the tune & artist around, Iwas hoping you could do something like that with the ereader

    I'm using calibre to transfer my books to the ereader but some of them are appearing in the reader with the path ie 'documents' showing & not the title.

    Any advice as to what I'm doing wrong
