@JimmXinu - The 'New Only' function works beautifully.

If you'd asked me out of the blue, I'd have said no. Calibre is written in Python, not Java. And calibre uses it's own version of Python (on Win and I assume Mac; Linux uses the installled version). But there is evidence of Java causing calibre problems before. Something to do with updating the underlying Qt widget system, perhaps?

If the stock version is working for you now, I'm thrilled. Puzzled, but thrilled.
In the first SIGSEGV help thread, which was also a Mac issue, Kovid said that it uses a private Python, so presumably that's confirmation for that. I'm almost relieved that someone else had a Java issue too because it seems so peculiar that it would have an effect. Software. So many parts.
