@Chuck Reid - Calibre Portable requires that libraries are contained within the Calibre Portable folders.

So copy the entire library folder from your old computer's Documents folder into the Calibre Portable folder on the external drive, so you have something like

Code:
Calibre Portable
    Calibre
    Calibre Library
    Calibre Settings
    Chuck's Library
    calibre-portable.exe
Now run calibre-portable and select Switch/create new from the library icon drop down menu. Browse to Chuck's Library and select it, make sure the Use the previously existing library at the new location is selected and press OK.
