Thank you for the help!

I have a few followup questions.

1) Does the updating involve the searching and confirmation of ebook metadata? And if "what you see is only added to exported books," does this mean that the changes that occur aren't visible within Calibre's library? [I have attached shots of the error message I am still getting.]

2) I figured this issue out. But for a book record that contains multiple formats, is there a way to manually select which format is exported to a device separately from the automated settings that are set up globally within Calibre?

3) I'm definitely still confused on this issue. I have attached some screenshots showing the displayed options within settings as well as the right-click options within the Genre tags section in the sidebar. Does "partitioning" refer to the changes in subcategorization within the file hierarchy (genres: non-fiction: science, history, etc.)? What does the "excepted" setting do? And when would it be helpful to change the subcategorization theme? (Would the latter command help me set up deeper tiers within the Genre tags section?) [I have attached shots of the views I am seeing within Preferences as well as the sidebar.]

4) Am I right in assuming that if I move the default location for the Calibre library, I can rename it whatever and place it wherever I'd like? Is there a best practice to adhere to other than locking the drive?
