So I have my nifty new Mac Mini here with its internal SSD; and a new external HDD to be my primary external drive; and a couple of drives for backups.
LR and the current catalog are on the internal drive, and the photos are on the external drive (retrieved from a backup). The photos are in hierarchical folders: Year / Month / Shoot (for example, 2016 / 2016-10 / Vancouver). They’re organized that way on the new external drive. The problems are two (probably related): First, I can only seem to link the catalog with the photos folder-by-folder, using the lowest folders in the hierarchy. There are hundreds of such folders. In a half-hour of work I managed to link about 500 of my 45,000 photos. Second, I can’t get the hierarchical display of folders to display in the left panels. There’s GOT to be a better way… I hope! Any help appreciated.
