so basically it will remove the entry from my database, right?

nope, HD healthy.

> Do you use multiple OS on the same Library?

yes - I access the same library folder on Dropbox from two different Apple machines (10.6.8, 10.8.3), but never simultaneously and never any OS other than Apple (no Windows, Linux, etc.). Is this a problem?

sorry, what's a quality check PI and how does it fix? Is there a URL that describes that the fixes are and how that works (what Calibre will do)?
