I've gone to Preferences/Advanced/Miscellaneous and clicked on "Install Command Line Tools." I get the message:

"Command line tools installed in /usr/bin. If you move calibre.app, you have to re-install the command line tools."

After that, however, I'm afraid I'm lost.
You need to open a command prompt (however you do that on a MAC).
Now you can type the command
