The only way I have been able to get them back into Calibre, is to Add them one at a time. My first question is, why did this happen? The next question is, how can I get these books back into Calibre without having to do it one at a time? I should have done the move manually, instead of moving it with Calibre. That's what I have done to back it up in the past, and it worked great. I should have stayed with the method that worked. Thank you for any help you can give.
From the calibre FAQ

I am getting errors with my calibre library on a networked drive/NAS?

In particular, be aware that Google Drive is incompatible with calibre, if you put your calibre library in Google Drive, you will suffer data loss. See this thread for details.
Question do you still have the original library on your local drive?
