Library Problem (Mac M1 Pro)
Hi,
I've been a Calibre user for awhile now and I have been having problems with my library. I moved the library to a new local folder on my Mac. After creating a new library from this location, I had to restore database almost everytime I opened Calibre. I just opened it and there's only one book in my library. When I click Switch/Create Library... and then choose my folder it says "There is no existing calibre library at /CalibreLibrary." I can still see all my book folders with files inside in my folder. There are also 3 metadata files: 1) metadata [conflicted].db 2) metadata_db_prefs_backup.json 3) metadata_pre_restore.db What should I do? |

Is that your Library name, Because Calibre Library is the default name (note space)?
BTW The full command is Switch/create Library: USE EXISTING:<selection> |

The '[conficted]' bit makes me think there is some backup/sync/cloud drive program messing with your library. You being on a Mac, Time Machine maybe? Anyway, kill that, whatever it is. |
