Transferring to a new computer

[bralk]

Hi

I have to transfer my PM+ catalogs to a new computer.

The actual photos are on an external disc. The catalogs with proxies in on the internal disc on the old computer.

Can I just copy the catalogs with proxies to the new computer and then relink with the external disc from the new computer ?

Copy the catalog folders to the new computer.  On the new computer use the "Locate Existing Catalog..." button in the Catalog Management window to open each catalog.  Then for each catalog transferred, in the Local Catalogs section, click on the expander triangle to the left of each catalog name, then click the expander triangle to the left of the Maintenance section.  Then click the "Reintegrate Forgotten Catalog" button.  Do this for each transferred catalog.

That should do it.
