But it sounds to me like you'd be better off just reverting to 4.23. Delete the 5.x application (quit the application and then drag it to the trash) and install the 4.23 application instead.
That's what I plan to do. Just backing up my Calibre folder first as a precaution.

I've had my Calibre library in Dropbox for years, never been a problem. Everything we have is in Dropbox, it has to be as we have three PC's in the house all working from the same database.
