Kathy,  It looks like your thread was hijacked without you receiving an answer.

Try Options > Customize > Locations tab > Test all media folders
UNCHECK make a list of all missing media files
Click "Proceed"
As each of your "missing" files pops up, I believe what you want to click is 
"Remove Lost Picture"   
THAT IS, I believe this removes the LINK to the lost picture/file.

HOWEVER, the HELP doesn't explain what this button does.  ?!  Hopefully, that 
will be fixed in v8--I mean, I hope v8 Help matches v8 software.  I digress.

You can always do this for one of the files (all 4-5 times it appears) and run 
it again to see that the app is no longer looking for the missing picture/file.

Thing is, I don't want to necessarily find the missing media
If it was just that some files have had their location changed, that would be 
easy enough for Legacy to find, and the ones that have had their file name 
changed can be done manually quite easily.

But there are the files that somehow appear to be attached to 5 different 
places within the one person or family yet I can only find some of those 
attachment points.

I want to be able to unlink any that I can not find the attachment point for.

You may want to wait till Legacy 8 becomes available.  It should be able to
