Calibre Portable does not play well with many plug-ins, including CALM, unless the user jumps through hoops with several Calibre-specific environment variables. I refer you to the Calibre Portable documentation, as well as to other posts on that topic in this forum.
[2] You are using a "normal" Calibre, but did not first Refresh the Target Library on the Target Library Tab before going to the Source Custom Columns Tab. Remember that CALM is an add-on, not just a plug-in, and the Target Library is a very special metadata.db that also comes with a special metadata_tools.db file. Normally, you would first configure using the Target Library Tab, then the Source Library Tab, and then the Source Custom Columns Tab.

Sorry. I should have provided more details. I am using Calibre 2.48 on OSX, and have the command-line utility installed and working. My libraries are stored on a Box Sync folder, for easy backup, but the syncing is always paused when Calibre is used.
I suppose something is happening between when I select the parent folder for the CALM library (It should restart automatically then? Because it does not happens) and when I add the source libraries, because your instructions inside the plugin suggests that the snapshot process would not be instantaneous....
