Importing old Calibre library?
So after replacing the hard drive in my computer after a crash I can't seem to find an easy way to import my old library. I have to hit the A key then select the author folder then the individual book. It will take hours to transfer hundreds of books this way. I just cant seem to find a way to select all the books at once. I'm sure that there is a way but it eludes me as of yet.

If the old library hasn't been damaged, and its metadata.db file is present, use the Library->Switch/create tool to browse to it, and select the Use the previously existing library at the new location option.
