Everything is fine this morning, Calibre correctly showed my library as soon as I opened it up, after I made sure the metadata.db file had updated.

I think I caused the the problem because I tried to link my calibre before all the files had down loaded from Dropbox and somehow I corrupted the metadata.db file.

I am now making a backup of Calibre on an external hard drive.

Thanks you both for your help
