Sorry to be so late replying. Work got in the way.

First of all, I had problem until I noticed the spelling mistake, then it would not accept my location, so I looked again at my path and thought: "it looks like external drives are accessed through the /home folder, but possibly not. I removed the /home part of the pat, and it worked.

In case another Ubuntu user comes this way, that is at least one of the problems.

I can now access the library with little or no problem. I suspect there will be damage, but as long as there is some progress, I have to live with that.

Now, it will not download my news feeds at all. I can call up the page and hit the button but it just sits there. I find that very odd.

When I tried to change a book - PDF to EPUB - it did not work but it could be that particular book. I have to find another non-EPUB book to try again, but I have some suspicions that I would like to ask about.

I am thinking of removing and reinstalling Calibre and see if that works.

The reason I ask is that I have, in the past, tried that and found it did not work and so thought it was another corrupted file. This went on some five or mre times before I asked and found I was chasing my tail, and I don't even have a tail!

Is that a wise path to take?

Cheers,

F
