Apple?
Try opening the Calibre Library directory with a file manager and try to create a folder (directory) and create a file inside that folder (directory).
As long as Calibre isn't running at that moment nothing bad should happen.

Calibre complains that the filesystem is read only, so have a look whether it is true.
