How to reconnect a file?

Mar 29, 2012 9:34 PM

I forgot and tried to rename a file without going to File>Reconnect on my Mac.There's only one missing file I'm interested in. When I did File>Reconnect only All Missing Files were availble to me and about 18 came up but not the one I wanted . Only took about one minute. I really am not sure how to use Browse. How do I use it? How to I try to reconnect this one missing file manually?

    File...Get Photos and Videos...From Files and Folders, then browse to the folder containing the file and click on that file to show it in the Preview pane.  Hit the "Open" button at the bottom of the browse dialog window and only that file will be imported.

    When you double click the missing file inside Organizer, it should automatically start search for Missing fine. In the same dialog, you can open the manual reconnection dialog and point to the latest location of the file you want to reconnect to.

    Thanks. Now I know how to browse. Browsing from the reconnect window rarely worked for me. When I first saw that the file was disconnected, I tried to drag it into the workspace with the photos with the same keyword. That disconnected file is on my desktop. Fortunately, I did have a duplicate
