I thought this would be easy but no luck trying to do it. On my iMac my wife has a new user area and I have a user area. I have Calibre installed in both areas and I wanted to use the existing Calibre library in both user areas. I copied my Calibre library to a new Users/Shared/Calibre Library. I then pointed the Calibre in my user area to that and had no problem. But then I started up the Calibre in my wife's new user area and when I run the set-up Wizard I can see the Users/Shared/Calibre Library and even choose it but the NEXT button stays unlit. Thinking it was a permissions error I did Get Info on the Calibre Library and saw that the permissions for Everyone were set to read only. I tried changing that to read and write. Calibre (wife's area) then saw the folder, let me choose it and the NEXT button was lit but that resulted in a long error message about trying to write a read only database. I give up. Anyone have any ideas? Right now I am running two separate copies of the same Calibre library but that is a pain to keep up. Thanks.
