Hello All,
I am new to the forum! I'm hoping that someone can help me figure this out and it's a simple solution that I'm missing.
I recently bought a new laptop so that I can move an external hard drive from desktop to laptop and edit pictures on both computers using this same drive. I have my catalog and photos on the ED, removed it from desktop, attached it to laptop, expecting to see it pop up on the left-hand panel just as it does on my desktop. Not there. I can hit the "Import" button and I see the catalog and the photo files listed to import. Should I import the photo files?
Was I wrong in thinking I could just plug in the drive and see what I see when I'm on my desktop? From what I've read online about using this method, it seemed that simple to me. What am I doing wrong????? I've been trying to figure this out on and off for three days and I am beyond frustrated!!!!
Thanks!
