That's disturbing. Mine all need to be relinked as well and I also use Dropbox. I know the Dropbox folder isn't the "same" as other folders though it appears that way visually. I've had quirky things happen when copying folders because of it. I hope there is a way to change a setting or something. I imagine we aren't the only ones doing this. No solution from me but I'm anxious to see replies on this too
