Moved catalog Lightroom - not found photos (I've updated the file location / found missing files, but still no photos)

Hello

I would be very grateful for any help in this matter.

I kept my Lightroom (using Lightroom 5.7) catalog on my laptop (because there is an SSD) and all the files on a disc raw external usb. It has worked well.

I recently bought a new computer for editing photos. I simply connected the external USD to the new computer and copied the catalog file to the laptop on the internal SSD new flash computer drive. Next I went to open the catalog file in Lightroom, and as expected, I got "?" in the folders Panel. I updated the location of the root folder and then clicked on opportunity find missing files on all subfolders (marked with '? '). What I didn't know is that the '? ' is now gone, but the record shows not what, it is empty in Lightroom (no photos in the selected folder). It's defintely not set to true, all the pictures are in their 'old' place (not to mention the fact that the external hard drive has been moved to another computer - I can even open Explorer of in Lightroom and that entire folder is selected. )


Can someone help me please?


Thank you very much

When you use find missing files, photos are now stored in a different place in the hierarchy of folder in the folders Panel. Why? Because you say Lightroom as well.

If the folders on the drive has and under parent folder XYZ, and you said Lightoom records are now on the B Drive under parent folder XYZ, then you should look in Lightroom under the B player, not the reader has.
