That's not out of sync. That sounds like the laptop was open when you added from the main, and the laptop wrote over your database changes from the main.

And if I run the database check on my primary laptop, it sees the missing books as ones it wants to delete.

It should be (and sounds like it is) seeing the folders with the books in them, but not any matching data in the database. That's consistent with the above scenario.

What I really want it to do is simply ADD them back in.

Go ahead. let the database check clean up (delete) the folders, then add the books from your original source books. If source books aren't available, remove the folders, then clean, then add from the removed folders.

But if I try to add them from a second machine, then the first doesn't see it and I have duplicate folders on the share.

The first should see them just fine. Make sure the first is off, add from the second, then the first should see what you see in the second. Both should see the same metadata.db database file. It's only the folders and book copies that are floating around disconnected from your db.
