Not all, but alot of my content when I go to it shows a block of where there should be a picture of the items but! I have nothing there anymore. If thats not enough, I go ahead and double click or drag over to use but get a error window saying the file does not exsist???

    Go to the Content Library tab options menu (the rectangle with horizontal lines in the upper corner) > Content DB Maintenance > Remove Orphaned File References

    What is the full path to one of the files?

    Good morning, I had a similar problem - give this a try. Right click directly on the block that should have a picture. From those options click on "remove orphaned file reference". Does the image appear? If it does the down side is - you have to repeat that procedure for each thumbnail block. The up side, once you do that everything works.

    Dim downloads content files to Users/Public/Public Documents/My DAZ 3D Library. Where as before files were downloaded to Users/admin/My Documents/Daz3D/Studio/MyLibrary.

    Hi again, I'm a little green to be offering a lot of advice but I know the frustration of not having something work right and not knowing why. I'm wondering if this thread would be of any help http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/23989/
