File Location, Batch Import, Duplicate Song Names, Sheets Update
#1
I'm a new owner of both the Windows and Android versions of Mobile Sheets Pro and have the following questions.  All my song sheets are in pdf format:
1. What is the main difference of allowing Mobile Sheets to manage my files or not.  Isn't that just defining where Mobile Sheets will store the song sheets uploaded. Is there any other significance in choosing one vs the other.  I do no use cloud storage for my song sheets, it is all stored in the device local storage.
2. I have 3 collections of song sheets for playing with 3 separate groups.  There are common songs between the 3 groups ie. the song Name (Title) is the same but the sheet is different due to song arrangement used when playing with that group.  How can I batch upload all the sheets for each group without the sheets being overwritten.  I like to keep the same song Name (Title) for that song in the 3 groups.
3. I have added a Collection tag when I batch upload the sheets to let me know which group a song sheet belongs to but I don't think this will stop the song sheet from being overwritten.  I know that that there is a setting in Batch Importing - Avoid duplicate songs but I'm not sure how that will do with point 2 above for songs with same name. If Avoid Duplicate Song setting is not checked, will the other sheets that have the same song name be imported properly but what will happen to the actual file name of the duplicated sheets inside the folder where Mobile Sheets keep all the song sheets.  Does mobile sheets use separate folders to save songs for different Collections so there will not be any file name duplication between different song Collections.
4. I update some of the song sheets from time to time and I like to be able to have the new version of that sheet updated in Mobile Sheets. Can I just replace that specific song sheet file in the Mobile Sheet storage folder without impacting the other metadata/setting of that song.  This will only work if the Collections are stored in separate folder in Mobile Sheets so I know which sheet belong to the corresponding Collection for songs that I have a different version for each Collection.  Is there another way to do this ie. Do a Batch Import to refresh/update the song sheets.  I don't want to do this manually one by one as I don't want to keep track of which sheet I may have updated and replace it manually.  Also if there is 3 versions of the same song in the different Collection, how will Mobile Sheet or me know the right song sheet to replace/update
5. With Automatic Crop enabled, does Mobile Sheets actually save a cropped version of the song sheet pdf file instead of the original one in the storage location.  If this is the case, if I manually replace a new version of the song sheet in the folder where Mobile Sheet keep all the song files, will the cropping of that song sheet be lost.  If so how can I have the new version cropped.
6. I have some information like the tempo of each of the song in an Excel file.  How can I batch upload that information into Mobile Sheets to match-up with the songs I imported to Mobile Sheets already.
7. Since I have both the Windows version and the Android version of Mobile Sheets, can I just do a Backup of the Mobile Sheets in my Windows version and used the backup file to Restore on my Android device so I don't have to do the same process all over again.  If this is possible, where will the song files be stored in my Android Device since the Folder location used in my Windows version will not exist in my Android device.  I would still like to be able to manage the song files myself ie. have easy access to the actual file in case I like to replace a file manually instead of going thru Mobile Sheets if that is possible.
Looking forward to some suggestion on how I can overcome the above challenges. Thanks.
