Damaged files?

I recently converted my library from a PC to Mac. Lots of issues as a result, most of which I fixed, but I still have about 15 files that aren't working. They seem to be all PDFs and when I try to open them in Calibre they either won't load at all (says it is damaged or a file calibre can't recognize) or else the pages show up blank and in the right side of the PDF window where the TOC goes is a bunch of garbled characters.

I have most of them on my nook and they look fine. I tried deleting and redownloading into Calibre and the same thing keeps happening (either redownloading directly from the vendor or from ADE). They look fine in ADE and I can open then, scroll, etc. But as soon as they get into calibre they don't work.

I have no idea why this is happening or what to do about it. I am thinking it s related to the move but it is possible this was occurring before and I just didn't notice. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks so much!
