Thanks to you all. After thinking a bit more I've become wary about doing it my way since I made such a mess of it the first time I tried.

I still have access to the old computer with the old calibre library etc, and transferred an ebook from there to my Sony. To my great relief the error message now does not show, and the ebook I loaded does show in the bookshelf view.

Is there a way I use calibre itself to put a full copy of the calibre library on the old computer (and all the library's odds and ends) onto a flash drive? And then use calibre on the new computer to import it from the flash drive into calibre? Would I need to delete calibre from the new computer and start over? Or would importing the material from the flash drive overwrite what I have now?

If there is such a way could some kind soul give me a step by step description in one syllable words of how to do it? Or point me to such a description?
