Her version of Kobo is 4.7.10413 and her version of caliber is 3.4.

The odd thing is when I add any book with a series, when I add another is deletes the pervious one that was added.

Her caliber is set up exactly like mine and my mine works very well.

Where can I start looking to find the cause of the error?
I suspect you are mixing two things up. The "replace a book" problem suggests you have the save template wrong. This is in the driver configuration. And it probably means your save template ends with something like:

Code:
{authors} - {series}
You might have something before the {authors} to create a directory, but you need the "{title}" or something else to make the files unique.

If there is a plugboard error as well, then, as theducks said, we need the code you are using and the error to be able to suggest what is wrong.

Also, it might just be a typo, but I would recommend a version of calibre later than 3.4. That will not have support for the firmware version you are using and you will need to enable the "attempt to support newer firmware" option in the driver. It will work, but you are better using the later versions of calibre. Of course, if you meant to type "3.14", it will be OK.
