All books and db lost in drive failure, how to restore from backup?
Hi all so my drive with my ebooks on failed!
Fortunately I keep a backup so I have the calibre library folder with all books in and the DB file. I have putthem onto a new drive which has a different name to the failed one. How do I point calibre at the db file and the calibre library folder? Thanks. Am on osx. Last edited by stustaff; 10-30-2010 at 06:48 PM. |

click the calibre icon in the toolbar, the rest should be self evident.
