Hi All,
I have a two-fold question.
1) I have a folder of photos from a California trip in 2002. They have been imported into LR but I must have subsequently created subfolders outside LR because it has the previews but can't find the photos. (The dreaded "!"). Right now I have folders called Bixby Bridge, road from San Francisco, etc. So do I create corresponding folders in LR and import the appropriate photos into them or do I lump the photos into a single folder and rely on captions to tell me where they are from? And when I'm importing from a folder that contains subfolders, do I need to deal with each subfolder one at a time?
2) Perhaps this should be the first part of the question: When I try to re-import the photos, LR remembers that it has imported them in the past and won't let me re-import them even when I uncheck the "don't import suspected duplicates" box. How to solve this?
Thank you for any light anyone can shed on this
