[QUOTE="frankmezz, post: 863716, member: 26371"] Thank you for the replies. I opened Advanced options and clicked the option. That makes sense when i am importing from a backup disk, but what happens when i import directly from a camera card and remove the card (and never had the option checked)? Rhetorical question, it finds the picture fine with the card removed. I hate it when importing from a drive iPhoto responds differently than importing from a camera card. anyway, after i checked the option to copy photos to iPhoto Library, i opened the external hard drive and picked ONE picture to import and got the attached. ( when i picked the entire folder of 275 jpg's i had to hit cancel 275 times to get them all to import) I can open the jpg in preview and "space bar" but iPhoto reports it can't find it. then i click cancel and it finds it and imports it. spotlight shows the file in the original folder so it did find it. As stated earlier I am not trusting iPhoto (or my knowledge to use iPhoto) [ATTACH=full]10804[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]10805[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
