I use calibre and dropbox together and made a big mistake and although I still have all of my books, my calibre can't find them. I tried to add another computer to the dropbox and calibre and have both computers have access to the same library. It seems to have written two metadata.db files and messed everything up. Is there any way for me to replace the metadata.db file with the correct one so I don't have to add all 607 books again and edit the metadate for them?

Thank you so much. I hope my question makes sense, as I am not very technical.
