Hi there,<br />
<br />
I have a Macbook Pro (using Windows XP though) and I'm storing all of my photos on an external HD. &nbsp;Every time I detach my MBP to go somewhere, the connection between Lightroom (on the C:\ drive) and the photos (on the external drive) is lost. &nbsp;I'm finding it tedious, to say the least, to have to 're-associate' each virtual folder in LR (under the Library tab) with the physical folder on the external drive. &nbsp;Is there a quick way to do this?<br />
<br />
Thanks very much,<br />

How to locate 'missing' folders en masse

Photo and imaging software is used to edit and compose raster images; Adobe Photoshop, which dominates the market, has its own topic. Common actions include cropping, slicing, retouching, color replacement, masking and erasing. Other programs include Apple Photo, Corel PaintShop Pro, GIMP, Serif PhotoPlus, Pixlr, PhotoScape, Picasa and IrfanView.
