I followed these instructions and my library is still blank. Calibre identifies the library as the correct one, but the books do not show up. I did a database restore, but that didn't help. I think I'm just too stupid to figure it out.

The folder name is the Library name. You can rename the folder (to avoid confusion) using the OS THEN relink Calibre by using Create -switch to set the new name into use |

Things are sorted in Calibre it seems. I had to use Dropbox to move these files because my new computer would not copy them over from the removable drive. I am having some major Dropbox weirdness, but Calibre is finding my library now and working smoothly. I appreciate the help very much.
