No, you misunderstand what happened. I'm well aware of the file path problem and part of my cleanup process is to truncate some awfully long book titles. I've also tried not to bury my libraries way down in nested folders either, just to avoid this problem.
What happened is that I transferred all the books in my "CleanUp" library, to what was to become their permanent home in a new library I created titled "Biography". The book disappeared during the transfer from "Cleanup" to "Biography"! I suspect that a few others also disappeared by cannot check by comparing the list with the original source file of the books as I've deleted that source and of course the original "Cleanup" library is now empty as I chose to move and delete the originals in one swoop. Next time I will just move and then manually delete after checking that all books are present and correct in their new home.
This has however left me wondering if
a). this is a new problem with this version of Calibre,
b). a random glitch or
c). something that has been happening all along and I just haven't noticed because I'm cleaning and organising thousands of books into their genera libraries right now and have been just trusting that the transfers were going well.
Hence my asking if others had noticed a similar problem.
Thanks for the replies.
