Why presets are saved in the wrong setlist or sometimes even saved when I didn't "send"?

Ok, this problem is getting annoying. I've started a ticket about this but they don't seem to pay attention to this. When using POD HD500 Edit I had this problem sometimes. I opened POD HD 500 Edit, tweaked or created a preset, clicked the send button with the proper setlist selected, then I found that preset was saved in a different setlist, thus erasing the previous preset in that setlist. I guessed it's some kind of problem in the Firmware or POD HD 500 Edit which didn't inform the setlist properly, so I started changing setlists from POD HD 500 Edit so the program knows well which setlist is selected. So far, doing that seemed the solution for that problem.

 

Now, yesterday I plugged the POD HD 500 to the pc to go around presets, not to create a new one or make any changes. I know it's foolish since I can use the pedalboard for that, but I'm used to plugging it and using it via POD HD 500 Edit. After I finished using it, I closed POD HD 500 Edit and unplugged the POD from the USB cable. As usual, the preset selected keeps an * character. I don't like seeing that so I don't think afterwards I modified that preset. So I changed to another preset with the pedalboard and went back to the previous one. What I found is that I had a preset from another setlist recorded in that place...and I didn't even had modified ANYTHING with POD HD 500 Edit when it was plugged...Either the program or the Firmware did that by itself.

 

I wanted to ask how many of you have this problem and if there's any solution to that in the user's hands. This is turning annoying and so far I've been lucky to have those presets (and latest versions of them) saved in my computer. I work with music so the POD HD 500 is one of my working tools. It's getting annoying having to deal with these simple but serious problems. I really hope Line 6 fix this in their next update.

    I haven't heard of this problem before. Can you help us reproduce the problem by providing an exact and specific description (recipe) of the steps we can use to create the undesired/unexpected behaviour? Please be specific, describing every touch of every button in sequence. Try to use the simplest situation, with the fewest steps, to consistently and reliably reproduce your problem.
