  • re-linking files

    Posted by Patrice Shannon on October 9, 2014 at 4:18 pm

    I accidentally moved some files in the Finder that were used in my AE project. Now of course AE can’t find them. I know where they are, but can’t remember where the folder was previously, or I would just move the folder to it’s original spot. How do I “link” the files in AE to the files in the Finder on a Mac? running AE 6.

    Many Thanks,
    Patrice

    Open your project, double click one of the missing files, this will open up a browser, navigate to your file location and select the proper file. At this point AE, should find all the missing files.
