Thank you Bob. I'm pretty upset now, so I may be wording myself badly. The main problem is the folders that Library has lost. If I can't restore Library I will have to rebuild them, and will loose a lot of tags etc. I assume Loightroom will find the missing files if I'm able to get the old database back. Because the files are all there, as far as I can tell.

If you've moved or renamed something on the hard disk it will get out of sync with the library. Find missing files resyncs it. -- Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Tim Øsleby > Sent: 04 June 2007 22:12 > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: My Lightroom library is messed up > > HEEELP, please. > > I'm panicking here.
