I downloaded a Job to a folder on desktop. Copied to backup hard drive. Also copied to my internel hard drive Photo folder. I also made a DVD. Opened LR to import to same location, by mistake I opened the backup hard drive to import the images. I now have images in LR. I would like to move these images into my Photo folder on internal HD. When I try to drag them to the Photo folder on the internel HD it states the images are already there. Which they are but not imported into LR. How do I get them into Photo folder as my imported images? :( Bob

Shutdown LR
Temporarily rename the folder on the backup drive and start LR
It should no longer be able to see the backup drive and the images should have ? on them
Right click on the folder in LR where the images were and redirect it to the folder you want to use.
Rename the folder on the backup drive back to what you want.

Or just right click on the folder in LR and choose Update Folder Location and point to the internal HD location.

Victoria, Your answer was direct. It was so simple I could not relive it. Your answers are always simple and to the point. I am going to buy your book. Thanks again. BigBob
