calibre, version 2.1.0
ERROR: Failed to open book:
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "site-packages/calibre/ebooks/oeb/polish/container.py", line 938, in __init__
InvalidEpub: No META-INF/container.xml in epub

i have a "metadata.opf" file which i cannot open on my mac. not sure if this would be of use.

any help?
metadata.opf is the backup of the Library record. It is NOT the same as content.opf which is part of the book

The save a copy shows the standard file system folder chooser dialog. So it is wherever you set/used
