What's odd is that checking the library showed me that I have 40 to 50 books that show up as 'Extra Titles'. I have never manipulated the library folder outside of Calibre, but the database got corrupted anyway. Looks like I need to check the library occasionally so I don't end up with a bunch of titles to fix.

Thanks again for your help!
Cloud running against your Library? YOU MUST PAUSE IT or you have a Keystone Kops situation. You rename (using Calibre and the cloud restores the old. )

BTW Years of running Calibre and only involving techniques on the Don't Do This List (implied in FAQ) has resulted in those kinds of errors
