I have install FH afresh on on new machine and restored my data from a backup successfuly. My pictures were in a directory which does not exist on my new machine. They are all intact in a new folder, but changing the address on the link does not seem to work.
Any suggestions?

Try using the Work with Multimedia Links tool to fix the links.
This should allow you to navigate to the correct directory. Windows XP has a habit of showing My Documents for example where the actual directory path is much longer, the multimedia tool deals with this.

Thanks! I managed to fix the links - a bit tedious but all seems fine now![smile]
