Half of Calibre Library missing!

spyates · 12-16-2012, 02:13 PM

Hello,

New to the forum, I hope that someone can give me some advice on what to do!

I have started using the Calibre Portable on my external hard drive.
Love it! Until today, when in the process of adding more books noticed
that half of my library is missing! My library folder only contains
the A's though part of the M's. Everything after that is gone!
Including that metadata icon. Even the new books that I was in the
process of adding the author file is gone! Help! What should I do? My
library was over 16K books!

Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated!

Look under the icons:
do you see a light "Restrict to" and the words (all books) next to that?
Is there something in the Search bar

Are you sure you are NOT looking at your Device view instead of Library view (the books Icon)
