However if I then right-click the book and choose "Edit Metadata" I can download it...
The last time I used used from ISBN, I entered a list of ISBN (10 and or 13) with each on a new line (I used a barcode reader to enter the EAN numbers)

When I submitted the list, Calibre fetched all metadata and covers and applied the tag I had configured to all (ISBN valid) items found
