Starson says no, but if you
do make a clean install, I suggest that you keep the backup but not replace the new library. Instead, import a
small number of books and experiment as he has suggested.
If it's permissions, you're just going to end up in the frustrating loop that you're in now should you keep using the current library. If a completely fresh install solves the problem, it implies permissions were an issue well enough to assuage the curiosity bump, but gets you to a solution faster -- just
import the remainder of your library. If you continue to have problems with the new library, a small initial number of books (folders) let's you determine the cause more easily. IMNSHO.
