Issue- Importing old library on Mac

Hi there,
I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this, or if the answer is listed somewhere else. After scouring the internet last night, and still not having any luck, this is my first post to see if I can get a solution.
I recently had an issue with my MacBook and had to get it wiped. Now, when I try to import my library that I backed up from my hard drive, it is not letting me do so. It is saying there is no exported data, however the folder contains other folders of every single book I had.

This is the message that comes up:

calibre, version 8.5.0
ERROR: Not valid: The folder /Volumes/My Passport for Mac/Backups.backupdb/Malerie’s MacBook Air/2025-06-23-104004/Macintosh HD - Data/Users/malerie/Calibre Library is not valid: No exported data found in: /Volumes/My Passport for Mac/Backups.backupdb/Malerie’s MacBook Air/2025-06-23-104004/Macintosh HD - Data/Users/malerie/Calibre Library

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/gui2/dialogs/exim.py", line 280, in select_import_folder
File "calibre/utils/exim.py", line 389, in __init__
ValueError: No exported data found in: /Volumes/My Passport for Mac/Backups.backupdb/Malerie’s MacBook Air/2025-06-23-104004/Macintosh HD - Data/Users/malerie/Calibre Library


Does anyone know what to do from here?

Thanks !!!!
