Michelle,

I just tried the media relinker on just the J drive, and all but 36 files were 
retrieved.  The only problem is when I go to another computer, the flash drive 
port might not be named J.  At the FHL they will give me many, many drives to 
search, and I have to delete all but the drive that my flash drive happens to 
be inserted into on that particular computer.


It used to be so easy.  Once I relinked one photo, Legacy knew the source for 
all of the photos.  Can that option be restored?  I think it disappeared with 
version 9.


Carol

Michelle,


Thank you for your quick response.  You asked:


1) Did you move the Dropbox folder using the Dropbox tool to move your folder?


Dropbox has always been in the same location, on my Desktop/Dropbox.  
Otherwise, I am not understanding your question.

2) Did you use the Media Relinker to correct your file paths?

Yes, it still says I'm missing 3036 media files.

What is next?

Carol

Greetings,


I have reset my media files under 6.2 prior to updating to the new Legacy 
version.  My file designations follow this pattern:


C:\Users\Carol\Desktop\Dropbox\Legacy Images  - and so forth for Docs, Videos, 
and Sound files.


I also set the path for my flash drive:


J:\Legacy Media\


When I test the file paths, Legacy can't find any of my files.  This is 
extremely frustrating.  What am I doing incorrectly?
