I've upgraded to LR 5 in my new computer from LR 3 on the old one. You will recall---if not, take my word for it---I lost my entire photo database. It actually happened back at the turn of the year, but I only discovered it a couple weeks ago. Nevertheless, in LR3 I could still see the images even though the database was missing.
I've imported my old catalogue into LR 5 following instructions I got on the web [Laura Shoe video]. When I open up LR 5 and navigate to the empty folders I no longer see the images. Only empty slide frames. Is that as it should be? It shouldn't matter. The files are gone. I couldn't do anything with the images in LR 3 anyway. But at least I had reminders of what I had. [Or maybe I'm mistaken. Maybe there are things that could be done with whatever it was I have in my LR 3 installation. I'll be surprise if that's the case, but of course also delighted.] Thanks, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net "What does it mean...that the world is so beautiful?" - Mary Oliver -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
