How do I get multiple folders to appear again on an external drive after I accidentally did a 'remove' from my folder list?

Help please!
I accidentally did a right click remove of my folders on an external drive. The external drive shows in my folders list, but none of the folders that are still on it.
The photos are still in the folders on the drive and in their folders.  I tried an import to make the folders appear, and LR sees all the photos as existing in the catalog, so it knows about the photos.  And LR does not re-import them.
Just want to have the folders show up again in my folder list on the left.
Anyone know how to fix this error I made? Thank you.

For anyone interested, I had to add a folder to my external drive, then right click it and select SHOW PARENT FOLDER.  Thank you ADOBE SUPPORT, I am so relieved, feel stupid, but relieved.

  • How do I get multiple tiles to appear on my large piece for printing?

    Hi, I'm working in Illustrator 6. I've got a large piece that I'd like to print onto several 11x17 sheets. When I select Veiw---Show Print TIling, only one tile appears. I expect there to be enough tiles to cover the entire piece and be numbered for me? Where are they? How do I get them to appear?
    Then when I go to Print the tile option in the print dialog is greyed out.
    I know I've done this before in earlier versions.
    Can you please help me?

    You can see a tile view in the preview section of Illustrator Print dialog.
    Choose a printer of your choice and then under the Media Size select 11x17.
    Under Scaling: Tile Full pages and Scale them to any level that suits your preview and thus the output.

  • Cookies option has disappeared on my security page. How do I get the option to appear again?

    I have totally lost the option under my "Safari" , "Preferences", "Security" to select "cookies" to be on or off.  The option is simply not there on the page!  How could it have disappeared?  Any ideas how I can get the option back? 

    What version of Safari?
    Is there a Privacy tab in the preferences? If so have a look in there.

  • When clicking on "new sheet" in numbers on my MacBook Pro all I get is a blank sheet. I have added numerous sheets successfully prior to this. How to I get new sheets to appear again?

    When clicking on "new sheet" in an existing file on numbers all I get is a blank screen. I have added numerous sheets prior to this successfully. What changed and how do I change it back?

    Hi GSP,
    I can't reproduce your problem.
    Does the spreadsheet behave normally otherwise? What happens if you try to add a table to that blank sheet?

  • I have a new mac and my old mac had my photos on it how can I get my photos onto iPhoto without using a external drive or flash drive?

    My dad put a new mac in and the old Mac had my photos on it, and I checked iPhoto after it the new computer was plugged in and there was no photos in it, and my dad said that they should be in there but they aren't, so is there a way to get my photos onto the new Mac without the old one and without an external or flash drive? Because a lot of my photos I don't have on my camera because the memory card was full and the pictures that I had already had been on the old mac....
    Thanks!

    Have your dad post de what happened - you need to be at least 13 o se these forums and we need to be able to understand what you are asking
    the basic answer to moving photos is Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.  but you say you do not have the old computer
    Unless  you have a backup or there is more information the answer is there s no way now

  • How can i get my itunes to recognize itunes on an external drive

    My itunes for some reason doesn't recognize my external drive
    It has done so for years and NOW it doesn't ... I need help.
    Greg

    As far as i know, itunes stores the artwork information in the same file as the music itself.
    So if you configured iTunes correctly to use the library on your external disc, that should work.

  • How do I get the second HD to be a shared network drive??

    PowerPC G5 / dual 2Ghz - used as our file server.
    running OS X Server - v.10.3.9
    Have one internal HD - 160GB partitioned into two drives (General Access & Archive) in the Public folder of this computer
    Appears as Network: Local / G5 Server. When you click the connect button you get a choice of which volume to mount/connect to (ie. General Access; Archive or both)
    Running out of space on the drive so I purchased a second 160GB HD. Installed it, formatted it (with DiskUtility), named it, and copied all files from Archive (partition)
    The thought is to make this new 160GB drive Archive and to remove the partition from the original 160GB HD and have that be just General Access.
    How do I get the second HD to be a shared network drive??
    Also can I remove the partition to the first without having to clone it and reformat?

    Roam & Ali B,
    Thanks!!
    Next dumb question(s).
    We have a laCie FW external HD that I was using as a back-up drive (temporarily)
    I do have some files on it that I have to bring back onto the server to use. I get a admin user&passsword prompt every time I have to copy something back. It usually copies over a locked file that can only be deleted from the Server terminal.
    1. Why isn't this working without the admin prompt? I used DiskUtil to format it before I could use it.
    2. How exactly do I "clone" the current content - its not a simple 'Select All' and drag&drop? Is it going to bring over the partition as well??
    3. Once I have everything on the FW HD, re-boot using it as the System, and re-format the original 160GB HD - will I run into #1.

    How do I get push notifications to work again on my iPhone? After updating my IPhone I get told to connect to Itunes (probably the worst program ever created) to get push notifications. In iTunes there is nothing to click to get it working, no menu, nothing! Anyone with the same problem? Anyone with a solution???

    How are you doing this?  Are you trying to use Home Sharing?

  • How do I get my ereader to appear on the left hand side of Digital Editions?

    I have a Kobo Vox ereader and it works well.  It connects to my computer and appears  when I look at My Computer.  It doesn not appear on the left hand side of Digital Editions under Devices (devices does not appear either) when ADE is started.  The book I downloaded appears in ADE and is readable in ADE.  How do I get the Kobo to appear within ADE so I can transfer the book.  ADE does not seem to see the device to ask me to register it as the help screen suggest it might.  I've made sure that it is connected before I open ADE.  Please help.

    The eReader is authorized/activated with an AdobeID rather than with a computer.
    It is possible to have multiple computers and multiple devices all authorized with the same ID.
    The eReader gets its authorization when you Authorize Device from any computer;
    and then should work find when connected to any other computer authorized with the same ID.
    ~~~
    One possible reason for your issue is that you haven't authorized the laptop with your AdobeID.
    In that case ADE generates an anonymous/implicit ID with very limited capabilities.
    In particular, one capability missing is the ability to pass the implicit ID onto a device;
    so it is possible (???) that in that case ADE does not show the device.
    If that is the case
    ctrl-shift-D to ADE (cmd-shift-D if it's a Mac) on the laptop to remove the anonymous ID
    restart ADE (maybe not needed)
    authorize ADE with the same ID as you are using on the desktop
    restart ADE (maybe not needed)
    plug in the eReader and see if it is recognized

  • How do I get the folders in Mail to be listed alphabetically?

    How do I get the folders in Mail to be listed alphabetically?  When I add a folder it appears at the bottom of the list and I can't drag and drop it in the primary list to its appropriate postion, I can only drag it to subfolder status.
    Thanks,

    You should create your mail folders on the iCloud server (under ICLOUD in Mail), not locally on your Mac (under ON MY MAC) for them to show up on other devices and at iCloud.com.
    Anything stored locally on your Mac only exists on that specific Mac so leave all your mail on the server and organise it there.
