Roger,

I'm not sure why it's not working for you (could be a bug), but if you click on it (to show the images) and then select all of the images and then remove them from the catalog, the folder should disappear.

Roger,

I'd like to see your Photo Mechanic log.  In Photo Mechanic go to the Help menu and choose "Reveal Support Data..." and moments later a Finder window will come forward with the zipped log file selected.  Use the 'Attachments and other options' link when you're composing your reply to this message and there you'll be able to upload your zipped PM log file.

Thanks,

-Kirk

Roger,

In the Catalog Management window (Catalog->Catalog Management...) look for the Local Catalogs section.  Click on the triangle that appears on the left side of each of your catalogs.  Click on the triangle that appears to the left of each Maintenance section.  Click on the "Reintegrate Forgotten Catalog" button and wait for it to complete.  Then do the same for the remaining catalogs.

If this doesn't fix the problem, please let me know.
