Also, one more question, is there any way to look at my Calibre library from my iPhone/iPad? I don't want to read the books, just to view and know what I have and have not over there when I'm not at home.
Use the Content server (mac needs to be running and connected)
ANY browser can access (Be sure to set passwords) after you set Port Forwarding on your router to allow connection.
Pro: No need to regenerate the Catalog (and use space on your device)
Con: You guessed it! security. You now have a pinhole in your firewall.

FWIW Comcast catches 1 or 2 ATTEMPTS a month. (I also do not use 8080, the most common)
