Another stupid question
My computer just died and I have replaced it. I had a recent backup of my books on a memory stick which I had copied onto using the "save" button on the main Calibre screen. I created a file in "My Documents" for my books and specified it as the place for the Calibre library in the set-up wizard. I have copied from the memory stick to the new file. No books have appeared in Calibre. What am I doing wrong? I have tried the "Add books" button but when I open the file containing my saved books (I have over 3000) there is a list of folders - one for each author. Am I going to have to go through all the folders looking for txt and prc files and add them individually? Help! Please!

Worked - thank you soooo much! I did see that option but didn't understand what it meant - now I do!
