2.- Yes, anytime you want to access the server it must be running.
3.- Also you must enable the server in Calibre.

Got it and it works like a charm! First, I am running iOS (Mac) and two, I missed Faterson's direction to use the Connect/Share instruction originally which gives you the IP address.
Once I did that (and typed in the correct IP address) - there it was! Not happy about always having to leave Calibre up and running (that stinks, especially if someone turns off computer) however, this works for now.
Like Meemo, I would rather go directly to Dropbox but a little nervous giving her original statement that Dropbox started canceling accounts if books were in the Public folder which I used in order to get books via Stanza.
Thank you all!
P.S. Last stupid question - I get the computer has to be up and running (with Calibre running) but what happens if the computer goes into Sleep mode? Does this disconnect the Calibre server from running?
