i havent read the entire post, BUT…

in answer to your initial Q, the issue could be that that there is not a Master Affiliate relationship between the browser clips and the timeline clips.

very hard to fix that, simplest way is to use Tools Menu > Create Master Clips.
this can be neatest copying the sequence into anew project.
it wont help your reconnect problem AFTER the fact,
you would have to Create MAster CLips, THEN do the reconnecting

OMG Nick…you are brilliant….as are all the others helping me…

that completely worked doing Create Master Clips….it did reconnect the clip in the sequence to the media in the browser….fantastic…

i just made sure nothing was selected in browser or in timeline, and then choose Tools : Create Master Clips

Now when i choose the media in the browser and do : Reveal affiliante clip in front sequence, it totally does it. HURRAY…

Thanks so much…really appreciat…
Warmly,
Hope
