[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1889555, member: 396914"] OK, I got iPhotos mixed in. My bad. However, that raises a question. How was the previous version of Photos handling imports? There are two options, one to import the file into the app and the other to leave the file on the drive and just track the changes to it in the Photos database. The option is on the Photos preferences page. Here is my setup:[ATTACH type="full"]34578[/ATTACH] With that checked, once the images are imported, the files can be removed from the drive. If that is NOT checked, then the files have to stay where they were when the import was done or the database cannot find them. I wonder if the original database was not checked? It's a long shot, but worth asking. [/QUOTE]
