Pressing "O"

What a swift reply...thank you!

When I press "O" it opens a folder in the Finder but it's empty. It has the name of the book I selected—I tried with several, same withe pub and pdf—only there are no files of any kind in the folder. Nor can I bring up the book by clicking on it in the metadata view.

The answer to how I switched is very inelegant but I know accuracy is key. I thought I knew the right procedure but I didn't, really, and made a right mess of it...tried with the metadata file inside the Calibre folder (where the folders are) and then outside, finally being thrilled to see the Library populated. Feeling equally humbled and fortunate you're so generous with your time.
