Lol, found the folder. Simple as the folder list is now scroll-able. The missing folder was just off-screen when I tapped to look for them. Man, I feel silly for not realizing that.

Topic: Lost part of my Songbook. New site change fault? (4 replies, posted in About Chordie)
My songbook is missing stuff now. When I started it a few years ago I got up to about 62 songs and it wouldn't accept more. Discovered folders would allow me to add more so I had like a "general" area and several folders. Seems like I remember Songbook labeling the first folder it used as default until I created more as General folder. Now can't find those songs under my Songbook in General , only the folders I added in addition to the general folder are accessible.
Anybody see the same thing? Any idea if I can find access to the songs I had in General folder?

Topic: Minor suggestion (2 replies, posted in About Chordie)
I was looking for "One Way Out", which I learned from the Allman Brothers' version (Eat A Peach album). Found it under Elmore James, but for some reason it's not associated with the Allman Brothers in the artist listing. There I find "No Way Out", a tab version of the riffs in the tune, mistitled as "One Way Out". Can the Allmans' artist song list include One Way Out?
And is there a way to do different versions of the same song on Chordie? I love Rosanne Cash's version of "Motherless Children" but her lyrics have differences with the "traditional" version here. Not to mention that the chords seem wrong, wrong, wrong... I'm still trying to work it out, but Cash's version appears to be in a minor key.

You could print your songbook to a pdf file to produce a stand alone songbook.
If you don't know how to do that, do the following:
1. Check that you have a pdf program with a pdf printer
a) Open your computer's control panel (in the Setting menu if running Windows 8), find "Hardware and Sound" and click "View devices and printers".
b) Look for a printer that identifies as a PDF. If you have Abode Acrobat Reader or Nitro PDF, it should be there. If it there, you're good. If not, go to Abode and get the free Acrobat Reader download installed.
2. Open your songbook on Chordie
3. Look for the "view/print songbook" button at the bottom of your list of titles. Click it to open the print view page in Chordie.
4. Use Ctrl-P to open print and select the PDF printer you found earlier. Click "Print" after selecting the pdf printer.
5. In a few seconds, "Create PDF" dialog box will open to allow you to name the PDF file and identify where to save it. Take care of those tasks, then click "Create".
That's all you have to do. Now you can download to your tablet.
A quick way to set up for access to your songs for when you don't have wifi.
