So I just edited a huge set of photos. I put them into a collection, then undid the collection. But now when I go back to the edited photos in their original location & click develop there is an error saying ""this folder could not be found". I can see all the pictures & the edits I made in the Library though, so I'm thinking they're still there somewhere.
When I click on Library, it says they are located in G:\Lily\2010 (but I can't locate this folder G: on my hard drive)
When I right click & do show in explorer it says there is no file located in this specific path
I tried re-uploading the unedited pics from my camera into a new folder on C: & then right clicking on the G:\lily\2010 & selecting "find missing folders" & then selecting the newly uploaded unedited pics & that didn't work either.
Is there something I'm missing here? How can fix this so I don't have to re-edit all of these photos again? PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks in advance
Try "update folder location" from the same menu you tried "show in explorer" before and then point to the folder the images are in.

There is no update folder location when I right click.... I'm using LR 3 beta if that matters. There an update folder location on the far left scrolling menu, which I've tried to do a couple of different ways & it hasn't worked.
Does anyone know how I can find the G: folder on my computer???? I would try to paste the photos back in that folder if I could find it.

The one on the far left menu is what I meant. It should work, but I've not used the beta - isn't there a beta forum?

Ok, got it. I just played around a bunch more with trying to link it up with the right folder & eventually got it. Thanks

Part of the problem is that either you moved/renamed the folder that contained the photos, or maybe the hard disk that it was on changed letters.
I recommend people not move folders around that contain photos. It is much better, in my opinion, to organize with keywords and not organize via folders.
