I can confirm that on OSX the enter key edited the cell before this change, and does nothing at all after the change.

From Kovid's comment above, I'm guessing when this change was implemented it wasn't known that it did in fact change the default Calibre behavior on OSX. Understandable and easily fixed for those of us who liked/depended on the old behavior.

The following steps worked for me:

Go to Preferences/Advanced/Tweaks
Search for Tweak enter_key_behavior to get "Control behavior of the book list"
In the "Edit Tweak" box, change enter_key_behavior from 'do_nothing' to 'edit_cell'.


There may be an easier way but like I said it worked for me.

As someone who was going quietly about their business using Calibre and suddenly found it behaving differently, I can confirm that the above steps would have been much more helpful than snarky comments about release notes or references to four page long forum threads debating the best behavior.
